saturated and unsaturated fatty acids

[bebe1018_87]

which of the following are correct? I first thought that b) c) and d) are the correct choices, but I am not sure.

If anyone could help with these questions, I will greatly appreaciate it!

a) a plant that produces more monounsaturated fatty acids than polyunsaturated fatty acids in its membranes in winter has an increased resistance to freeze damage.

b) cell membranes in reindeer legs (near the hooves) are kept flexible because they have a large number of saturated fatty acids.

c) cell membranes in cold-tolerant winter wheat plants have a higer ratio of unsaturated fatty acids to saturated fatty acids than do cold-intolerant wheat variaties.

d) yeast cells that produce more unsaturated fatty acids than saturated fatty acids in response to cold have greater cold tolerance.


Thank u again!

Hello according to me b,c are correct. To solve these kind of problems you need to practice a lot and clear with concepts.
