When an avocado is not ripe, are the fats and nutritional content just as present or does the ripening process make them available? If so, why?

Here I am sitting with a bag full of avocados, and all of them are not quite ripe yet. I wonder if the fat and nutritional content are the same at this stage as when it ripens or if there is a type of transformation that happens as it ripens. If, so, why?

The nutritional content is all still there, but the nutrients in unripe fruits are more difficult to digest for us, and hence they don't taste as good. Starches breaking down into simple sugars, complex enzymes denaturing into amino acid chains, all this helps us digest and absorb the nutrients easier. This is also the same reason we cook meat vs eat it raw (aside from the chance of infection).
