to your question
hey chinaphoenix
In reference to your question, technically there isnt any differences in either organic or other types of oils. I am assuming that the othe oils you were refering to are essential oils. When being classified as essential oil, they are extracted by a couple of methods. The common methods being used are distillation, which doesnt pick up much of other substances other than the highly voiltile chemicals found in plants. And as long as there arent any chemicals added to the end product, and the essential oils are extracted as a whole, then there shouldnt be any differences. A method of testing fr qualit is to test it through a mass gaspectrometer. That question asked is not a very good question. You will have to ask your teacher to which aspects/areas of preferences he would like to test your understanding on.
Hope this helps, although its a little too late... cheers mate
