Question

PartJ- Following activation, the fatty acid enters the mitochondrial matrix and gets degraded by the beta-oxidation pathway, this pathway oxidizes the fatty acid to produce FAD and NADH H per beta-oxidation cycle O FAD and NAD+ per beta-oxidation cycle FADH2 and NAD* per beta-oxidation cycle O FADH2 and NADH H* per beta-oxidation cycle O FADH and NADH H per beta-oxidation cycle Submit Request Answer Part K- The beta-oxidation of a fatty acid containing 18 carbons will produceof Acetyl CoA, and of CO2 O 2,36 O 9, 12 0 9, 36 O 9; 18 O 18; 36 Submit Request Answer

Explanation / Answer

The correct option is (d) FADH2 and NADH + H+ per beta oxidation cycle.

Explanation :-.per each cycle of beta oxidation there is production of one NADH+ H+ and one molecules of FADH2.

Part k.

The correct option is option (d) 9, 18

Explanation:- the fatty acid containing 18 carbons require 8cycles of beta oxidation . This will produce a total of 9 acetylcoA. Each molecule of Acetyl coA contains two carbon atom. Each Acetyl coA produce 2 Co2 molecules.

So there is formation of 9 Acetylace and 18 Co2 molecules.

Hopefully it helps.
