    B)  low proportion of unsaturated fatty acids.

    C)  equal proportion of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids.

    D)  high proportion of unsaturated fatty acids.  

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

     The membranes of chill sensitive plants have been found to have about a 2:1 ratio of unsaturated to saturated fatty acids.
