CH3CH2CH2CH2CHCHCH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2COOH represents a molecule of d.a saturated fatty acid
Fatty acids have carboxylic acid as a functional group and an aliphatic chain.
As the carbons in the given chain have no double or triple bond, this type of fatty acid is saturated fatty acid.
In unsaturated fatty acids, one or more double or triple bonds are present in carbon atoms.
Disaccharides will have an aldehyde or ketone as a functional group.
Dipeptide has two amino acids joined by peptide bond. The peptide molecule has both amine and carboxylic acid as functional groups.
