D Correct answer
Explanation

Trans fat must be listed on the Nutrition Facts panel because of its proven negative health effects on cardiovascular health. Since 2006, the FDA has required trans fat content on all food labels. While monounsaturated fat, sugar alcohol, and potassium may appear on some labels, only trans fat is mandatory. This requirement helps consumers avoid artificial trans fats that raise LDL cholesterol.
