Question

Where does fatty acid degradation occurs in the cell?

Answer 1

Answer:

Fatty acids are broken down to acetyl-CoA by means of beta oxidation inside the mitochondria, whereas fatty acids are synthesized from acetyl-CoA outside the mitochondria, in the cytosol. The two pathways are distinct, not only in where they occur, but also in the reactions that occur, and the substrates that are used.

Answer 2

Answer:

Fatty acids degradation is the process in which fatty acid are broken down into their metabolites in the end generating acetyl coA the molecules for the citril acid cycle.
