The correct Answer is:
To determine which statement is false among the given options, we will analyze each statement step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the First Statement **Statement:** Fatty acids may be unsaturated with one or more double carbon bonds or saturated without double bonds. **Analysis:** - Fatty acids are classified into two types: saturated and unsaturated. - Saturated fatty acids have no double bonds between carbon atoms, while unsaturated fatty acids have one or more double bonds. - This statement is true. ### Step 2: Analyze the Second Statement **Statement:** Fatty acids may be esterified with glycerol forming monoglyceride and then triglyceride. **Analysis:** - Esterification occurs when a fatty acid reacts with an alcohol (like glycerol) to form an ester bond. - One fatty acid and glycerol form a monoglyceride, while three fatty acids and one glycerol form a triglyceride. - This statement is also true. ### Step 3: Analyze the Third Statement **Statement:** Neural tissue has very simple structures. **Analysis:** - Neural tissue is primarily composed of neurons and glial cells, which have complex structures and functions. - Neurons are specialized for conducting nerve impulses, and they are not simple in structure. - This statement is false. ### Conclusion The false statement among the given options is the third one: "Neural tissue has very simple structures." ---
