That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
A monounsaturated fatty acid is a type of fatty acid that has only one double bond between carbon atoms in a carbon atom chain. This means that there is only one point of unsaturation in the molecule. This type of fatty acid is often found in plant-based oils and is considered to be a healthier option compared to saturated or trans-fatty acids. Monounsaturated fatty acids have been associated with numerous health benefits, including reducing the risk of heart disease and inflammation.
