- Q4How many ATPs will be produced from the fatty acid shown in the figure?13913814814630s
- Q5A branch point in unusual fatty acids can be a hindrance to the enzymes of beta-oxidation. What type of oxidation will these fatty acids undergo?alphaomegagammabeta10s
- Q6Which of these statements is FALSE for the peroxisomal beta-oxidation of fatty acids?The fatty acid is completely oxidizedBeta-ketothiolase is not specific to medium chain fatty acidH2O2 is one of the product formedHydratase and dehydrogenase can be found in similar protein complex30s
- Q7How many ATPs is/are needed to convert a fatty acid into a fatty acyl-CoA?124310s
- Q8What is the name of the carrier of activated fatty acids from the cytosol into the mitochondria?acyl carnitine transferase Icarnitinetranslocaseacyl carnitine10s
- Q9Ketone bodies can further be oxidized to form ATPs. How many ATPS will be produced from an acetoacetate?Less 3 from that produced by hydroxybutarateAcetoacetate cannot produced ATP since it is in a gas formSimilar to that produced by hydroxybutarateAdditional 3 from that produced by hydroxybutarate20s
