Answer to Question 1

D
Trans fatty acids are found in vegetable oil shortening; they are formed when the liquid oil is hydrogenated to form a hard, stable fat. Vegetable oils, coconut and palm oil, and meats and dairy foods contain fat in the natural cis form.

Answer to Question 2

D
Olive oil is rich in monounsaturated fatty acids. Trans fatty acids are found in hydrogenated fats. Polyunsaturated fatty acids are found mostly in other liquid vegetable oils. Saturated fatty acids are found in dairy, meat fats, and coconut and palm oil.
