The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Most naturally occurring fatty acids have an unbranched chain of an even number of carbon atoms, from 4 to 28.
- Fatty acids are a major component of the lipids in some species such as microalgae but in some other organisms are not found in their standalone form, but instead exist as three main classes of esters: triglycerides, phospholipids, and cholesteryl esters.
- In any of these forms, fatty acids are both important dietary sources of fuel for animals and important structural components for cells.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Fatty acid article was read about 130,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 78 and blocks with 75: each hit it takes is cut by 30 %.
