Detailed explanation-2: -2 Lipids. Foods contain combinations of saturated and unsaturated fats. Saturated fat is found in high quantities in dairy products, eggs, and meats, and vegetable oils are particularly high in unsaturated fats.

Detailed explanation-3: -Fats may be saturated (having single bonds) or unsaturated (having double bonds).

Olive oil, a monounsaturated fat, has a single double bond whereas canola oil, a polyunsaturated fat, has more than one double bond.
