An unsaturated fatty acid characterizes by the presence of a double bound between two carbon atoms. If the fatty acid had only simple bounds between their C atoms, it would be a saturated fatty acid. The correct answer, then, is the one where we can see that double bond between the carbon atoms, or the final one answer shown in the picture, the D option.
