Concept introduction:

The structure of fatty acid is:

General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry: Structures of Life (5th Edition), Chapter 24.2, Problem 24.12QAP

The fatty acid is a long chain of carbon-containing a carboxyl group and a double bond. In the above structure, the double bond is present at gamma position or at the carbon present at 3rd position from the carboxyl group.

Beta oxidation refers to the oxidation of the double bond present next to the adjacent carbon of carboxylic acid.
