Vegetable oil and animal fats are are triesters formed from reactions involving glycerol (propane-1,2,3-triol) and long-chain carboxylic acids.
Fats and oils are formed through a process called esterification, where fatty acids react with glycerol to form triglycerides. This reaction occurs in plants and animals, and the resulting fats or oils serve as energy storage molecules. The type of fatty acids present in the reaction determines whether the end product is a solid fat or a liquid oil.
Proteins are proteins; fats and oil are lipids.
Unsaturated fats are plant fats. They are unsaturated because their carbons do not have the full amount of hydrogens attached and they have double bonds. These fats are thought to be better for your heart health than saturated fats which are fats found in animal products. Examples of unsaturated fats: Olive oil Canola oil sunflower oil Safflower oil Flax seed oil there are may more. Unsaturated fats can be monounsaturated or poly unsaturated.
Fats are classified as saturated, monounstaturated or polyunstaturated. Saturated fats are solid at room temperature. Animal products --meats, poultry, fish, eggs, dairy products--and solid shortenings are the major sources of saturated fats. Tropical oils such as coconut oil and palm kernal oil are also rish in saturated fats. Polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fates are liquid at room temperature. Polyunsaturated fats are found in vegetable oils such as corn oil, safflower oil, sunflower oil and cottonseed oil. High levels of monounsaturated fats are found in olive oil and canola oil.
Unsaturated fats are the healthy fats and are usually liquid. They can be found in olives, oils (like olive oil, peanut oil, soybean oil), avocado, nuts, and fatty fish.
Fats that are liquid at room temperature are called oils. They are typically derived from plants and are unsaturated fats. Examples include olive oil, canola oil, and sunflower oil.
Olive oil is rich in unsaturated fats, particularly monounsaturated fats, which are considered heart-healthy fats. Including olive oil in your diet can help improve cholesterol levels and support overall heart health.

No, olive oil and coconut milk are not miscible in each other because they are two different types of fats with different chemical compositions. The fats in olive oil are primarily monounsaturated fats, while the fats in coconut milk are predominantly saturated fats. This makes it difficult for them to mix together on a molecular level.
