In fatty acid oxidation, each cycle shortens the fatty acid being catabolised by 2 carbons, producing acetyl CoA and 2 reduced carrier molecules. Complete oxidation of a saturated fatty acid with 18 carbons would produce how many acetyl CoA and reduced carrier molecules?   a. 8 acetyl CoA, 8 NADH and 8 FADH2   b. 9 acetyl CoA, 8 NADH and 8 FADH2   c. 8 acetyl CoA, 9 NADH and 9 FADH2   d. 9 acetyl CoA, 9 NADH and 9 FADH2

Chemical energy contained in the fatty acids that are produced in the digestion of triglycerides is converted to chemical potential energy in NADH or FADH2 in which of the following processes? a. oxidative phosphorylation b. gluconeogenesis c. Glycolysis  d. B-oxidation  e. all of the above

In Yeast, pyruvate can be directly converted into: A. acetyl-CoA and ethanol B. acetyl-CoA only C. lactate only D. ethanol only

When acetyl-CoA containing radioactively labeled carbon atoms is fed to cells, the CO, produced is not initially radioactive. However, molecules of citrate and oxaloacetate are radioactive. Only after some time has passed will radioactive CO2 be released. What is the best explanation for this observation?

Which of the following is the third step of Citric Acid Cycle? Select one: a. Succinyl-CoA becomes Succinate and forms one ATP molecule and Coenzyme A-SH b. Pyruvate is decarboxylated to become acetyl-CoA producing NADH and Carbon dioxide c. Isocitrate and then decarboxylated and oxidized to produce alpha-ketoglutarate, Carbon dioxide and NADH d. alpha-ketoglutarate is oxidized and decarboxylated to produce Succinyl-CoA, Carbon dioxide and NADH e. Succinate is oxidized to become fumarate forming FADH2 f. Oxaloacetate combines with the acetyl from acetyl-CoA to produce Citric acid(citrate) g. Citrate is rearranged to become Isocitrate h. Malate is oxidized to become oxaloacetate forming NADH i. Fumarate is combined with water to become Malate
