saturation

Examples of saturation in the following topics:

• Lipid Molecules

  • Fats and oils, which may be saturated or unsaturated, can be unhealthy but also serve important functions for plants and animals.
  • Fatty acids may be saturated or unsaturated.
  • Saturated fatty acids are saturated with hydrogen since single bonds increase the number of hydrogens on each carbon.
  • Stearic acid and palmitic acid, which are commonly found in meat, are examples of saturated fats.
  • Saturated fatty acids have hydrocarbon chains connected by single bonds only.

• First and Second Declension

• Basic Color Vocabulary

  • Color is a way to interpret the visual appearance of an object; as an artistic element, it refers to hue, saturation, and value.
  • As a fundamental artistic element, it refers to hue, saturation, and value.
  • "Saturation" refers to the intensity of a color, for example the primaries are the most saturated or intense of the colors.

• Membrane Fluidity

  • In their saturated form, the fatty acids in phospholipid tails are saturated with bound hydrogen atoms; there are no double bonds between adjacent carbon atoms.
  • Thus, if saturated fatty acids, with their straight tails, are compressed by decreasing temperatures, they press in on each other, making a dense and fairly rigid membrane.
  • This "elbow room" helps to maintain fluidity in the membrane at temperatures at which membranes with saturated fatty acid tails in their phospholipids would "freeze" or solidify.
  • A cold environment tends to compress membranes composed largely of saturated fatty acids, making them less fluid and more susceptible to rupturing.

• Oxygen Transport

  • The percentage of oxygen that is saturated in the hemoglobin of blood is generally represented by a curve that shows the relationship between PaO2 and O2 saturation.
  • Saturation of O2 in hemoglobin is an indicator for how much O2 is able to reach the tissues of the body.
  • Higher PaO2 means higher saturation of oxygen in blood.
  • The curve starts to plateau at PaO2 higher than 60 mmHG, meaning that increases in PaO2 after that point won't significantly increase saturation.
  • The lower areas of the curve show saturation when oxygen is unloaded into the tissues.

• Fatty Acids

  • Natural fatty acids may be saturated or unsaturated, and as the following data indicate, the saturated acids have higher melting points than unsaturated acids of corresponding size.
  • The higher melting points of the saturated fatty acids reflect the uniform rod-like shape of their molecules.

• Fats & Oils

  • As might be expected from the properties of the fatty acids, fats have a predominance of saturated fatty acids, and oils are composed largely of unsaturated acids.
  • These saturated and trans-fatty acid glycerides in the diet have been linked to long-term health issues such as atherosclerosis.
  • These occur when the cis-double bonds in the fatty acid chains are not completely saturated in the hydrogenation process.

• Cycloalkanes

  • Cycloalkanes are saturated hydrocarbons that contain a ring in their carbon backbones.
  • Cycloalkanes are saturated hydrocarbons that contain a ring in their carbon backbones.

• Addendum

  • Saturation; Mr Dabo collects all the information as to why these villagers do not want to enroll their children (predominantly left brain)

• Maturity

  • During the maturity stage, sales will peak as the product reaches market saturation, and competition will grow increasingly fierce.
  • Demand for the product ultimately decreases due to competition and market saturation, as well as new technologies and changes in consumer tastes.
