Multiple Choice:

Which of the following is NOT true concerning fats and lipids?

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The question asks to identify which statement is NOT true about fats and lipids, so I will evaluate each option for its accuracy.
Option A: 'Saturated fats can increase cholesterol levels' This is generally true; high intake of saturated fats is linked to elevated LDL cholesterol in many individuals, contributing to cardiovascular risk when consumed in excess.
Option B: 'Saturated fats are found mainly in animal sources' This is also true in common dietary patterns, as many saturated fats come from animal fats (meat, dairy). While some plant fats contain saturated fats (like coconut oil), the statement captures the typical source pattern used in nutrition discussions.
Option C: 'Trans fats are naturally occurring fats that raise cholesterol levels' This statement is misleading. Trans fats do exist in small amounts naturally in some ruminant products, but the majority and the health concern come from artificial trans fats created by partial hydrogenation. Moreover, the defining claim that they are naturally occurring and universally raise cholesterol levels overstates the picture, since the level and impact can differ between natural and artificial trans fats. In nutrition guidance, artificial trans fats are the ones most strongly linked to negative cholesterol profiles and cardiovascular risk, so labeling them as 'naturally occurring' and universally elevating cholesterol is not accurate.
Option D: 'Saturated fats are solid at room temperature' This is true for most saturated fats, which tend to be solid or semi-solid at typical room temperatures (e.g., butter, lard).
Option E: 'Unsaturated fats are liquid at room temperature' This is generally true as well; many unsaturated fats (monounsaturated and polyunsaturated) are liquids at room temperature (e.g., olive oil, vegetable oils).
In summary, options A, B, D, and E align with standard nutritional understanding, while option C contains an inaccurate combination of claims (that trans fats are naturally occurring in all cases and that they universally raise cholesterol).
