Best Answer

Acetyl CoA is multifunctional; it can be used to produce fat or ATP. If the body needs energy, acetyl CoA enters the Krebs cycle. If the body doesn't need energy, acetyl CoA is channelled into an anabolic pathway that synthesizes lipids as a way of storing large amounts of energy as fat.
