The number of turns of the β-oxidation pathway needed to “process” a C 16 saturated fatty acid has to be determined. Concept introduction: The β-oxidation pathway is defined as a repetitive series of four biochemical reactions in which acyl CoA is degraded to acetyl CoA by the removal of two carbon atoms at a time. NADH and FADH 2 are also produced in this pathway. The reaction types and the functional group changes in the β-oxidation pathway for a saturated fatty acid are as follows:

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The number of turns of the β-oxidation pathway needed to “process” a C₁₆ saturated fatty acid has to be determined.

Concept introduction:

The β-oxidation pathway is defined as a repetitive series of four biochemical reactions in which acyl CoA is degraded to acetyl CoA by the removal of two carbon atoms at a time. NADH and FADH₂ are also produced in this pathway. The reaction types and the functional group changes in the β-oxidation pathway for a saturated fatty acid are as follows:
