Which is a viable path that a carbon atom could take as it moves through metabolic pathways in a cell? Amino acid → purine → DNA → purine → amino acid → acetyl CoA –→ fatty acid triglyceride Amino acid acetyl CoA → ► purine pyrimidine glycerol fatty acid → lactic acid → glucose Glucose → glycerol → triglyceride fatty acid → purine - → DNA → pyrimidine → amino acid Fatty acid → amino acid pyrimidine → purine → glucose glycerol → acetyl CoA amino acid Pyrimidine → fatty acid purine amino acid acetyl CoA → glucose pyruvate → lactic acid
