Question

fatty acids and amino acids are converted into ______​

Answer 1

Answer:

▪︎ Fatty acid is converted into acetyl CoA units.

▪︎Amino acids is converted into glucose (CHO producing).

Answer 2

Fatty acids and amino acids are converted into acetyl-CoA.

Explanation:

• The amino acids and fatty acids are converted into acetyl-CoA to enter the Kreb's cycle.
• Usually energy is obtained from glucose. Glucose enters glycolysis and the end product is pyruvic acid. This pyruvic acid is converted into acetyl CoA which then enters the Kreb's cycle.
• In case the availability o glucose is less, then other molecules such as fatty acids and amino acids are directly converted into acetyl-coA which enters the Kreb's cycle.
