Answer:

Compare the structure of a fat (triglyceride) with that of a phospholipid. ... The fatty acids on a saturated fat have no double bonds in their hydrocarbon chains, whereas at least one fatty acid on an unsaturated fat has a double bond. Saturated fats tend to be solid at room temperature, while unsaturated fats are liquid.
