1. The question asks which fatty acid is most highly correlated to heart disease because it has more hydrogen atoms attached to it.2. Fatty acids can be categorized based on the number of double bonds they contain: - Poly-unsaturated fatty acids have multiple double bonds. - Mono-unsaturated fatty acids have one double bond. - Saturated fatty acids have no double bonds, meaning they have the maximum number of hydrogen atoms attached to them. - Cholesterol is not a fatty acid but is a type of lipid. - The statement "All types of fat are correlated to an increased risk of heart disease" is a general statement and does not specify which type of fat is most correlated.3. Based on the information provided and the nature of saturated fats (having the most hydrogen atoms due to the absence of double bonds), the answer is "Saturated".
