What do fats and oils consist of and how do they differ chemically?

What are the differences between fats and oils and what do t...
Fats and oils in our diet (and in our body fat deposits) commonly consist of three fatty acids chemically combined with a molecule of glycerol to form a 'triglyceride'. Each fatty acid consists of a methyl group (CH3) at one end, a carboxyl group (COOH) at the other, and a chain of carbon atoms connecting these ends. The 'degree of saturation' of each fatty acid depends on how many atoms of hydrogen the backbone of the fatty acid molecule contains.
