Answer:

You can tell if the fat is saturated if it is in a solid state when it is at room temperature.

Step-by-step explanation:

Endured fats are in solid form when they are at room temperature, unlike unsaturated fats that are in liquid form at room temperature.

Saturated fats are easily found in animal products such as cheese, milk, sausage, egg yolks, meat, butter, among others. Some foods of plant origin also have saturated fats, however they are very rare. However, coconut is an example of them.
