| Column- I | Column- II |
|---|---|
| A) Simple lipid | I) Oleic acid |
| B) Derived lipid | II) Palmitic acid |
| C) Unsaturated fatty acid | III) Wax |
| D) Saturated fatty acid | IV) Sterol |
- AA - II, B - III, C - I, D - IV
- BA - III, B - IV, C - II, D - I
- Correct answerCA - III, B - IV, C - I, D - II
- DA - II, B - IV, C - III, D - I
Solution
Simple lipids are esters of fatty acids with alcohols. Wax is an example of a simple lipid.
Derived lipids are obtained by the hydrolysis of simple and complex lipids. Sterol is an example of a derived lipid.
Unsaturated fatty acids contain one or more double bonds between carbon atoms. Oleic acid is an unsaturated fatty acid.
Saturated fatty acids do not contain any double bonds between carbon atoms. Palmitic acid is a saturated fatty acid.
Thus, A matches III, B matches IV, C matches I, and D matches II.
Answer: A - III, B - IV, C - I, D - II
Derived lipids are obtained by the hydrolysis of simple and complex lipids. Sterol is an example of a derived lipid.
Unsaturated fatty acids contain one or more double bonds between carbon atoms. Oleic acid is an unsaturated fatty acid.
Saturated fatty acids do not contain any double bonds between carbon atoms. Palmitic acid is a saturated fatty acid.
Thus, A matches III, B matches IV, C matches I, and D matches II.
Answer: A - III, B - IV, C - I, D - II
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
