Question
Chapter 22, Problem 26P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The given steps in the fatty acid synthesis must be arranged in proper order.
Concept introduction:
The process of fatty acid synthesis occurs in the cytosol of the animal cells, while it occurs in the stroma of chloroplast in the plant cells. It is a stepwise process, which occurs by the addition of two-carbon units. These carbon units are provided by the acetyl-CoA, derived from glucose oxidation.
