Part D Activation of the fatty acid (converting it to fatty acyl-SCOA) requires the expenditure of 2 ATPS. Use your answers from parts B and C to calculate the total number of ATPS generated from the metabolism of a saturated fatty acid with 22 carbon atoms including both the citric acid cycle and the B-oxidation pathway as well as the initial ATP required to produce the acyl-SCOA molecule that starts the process. Express your answer as an integer. • View Available Hint(s) ΑΣφ 150 ATP(s) Submit Previous Answers
