Question

Place the steps for extracting energy from fat into the correct order that they happen in energy production (from 1 to 4).

Beta-oxidation breaks down the fatty acids to yield acetyl CoA

Acetyl CoA enters the TCA cycle

Triglycerides are separated into glycerol and fatty acids

High-energy electrons delivered to the electron transport chain produce ATP
