Trans fatty acid.That's the first step in making it completely hydrogenated.Saturated fat is completely surrounded by hydrogen atoms.Therefore it's "saturated" with hydrogen.Trans fat poses a much greater health risk than the fats they were created from.

haha- learn to use google for your homework help :-D . Or read your text book
Anyway- it's either D or E (saturated fats are animal fats and are solid at room temperature and trans fatty acids are chemically produced fats). But seriously, this is important stuff for you to know, so really, read your text book!
