Beta-oxidation is the major pathway by which fatty acids are metabolized. However, there are other minor pathways for fatty acid metabolized. These include alpha-oxidation (for branched fatty acids) and omega-oxidation.

Glucose amino acids and fatty acids can be metabolized within the cell to liberate?
CO2 CO2
What is the most common building blocks of lipids?
Fatty acids and glycerol
What are components of fats?
Fat is made up of fatty acids and glycerol. A triglyceride is formed when a glycerol forms with three fatty acids.
Why are cis fatty acids rearranged to trans fatty acids in the process of partial hydrogenation?
CIS fatty acids are the most common form. They rearrange to form trans fatty acids during the hydrogenation of edible oils.
What two molecules combine to form lipids?
glycerol and carboxylic acid combines to form a lipids.
Fatty acids can be metabolized by entering?
glycolysis
What is the common pathway for oxidation of products of glucose and fatty acids catabolism?
The common pathway for oxidation of products of glucose and fatty acids catabolism is referred to as the b-oxidation pathway.
Glucose amino acids and fatty acids can be metabolized within the cell to liberate?
CO2 CO2
When fats are metabolized the fatty acids enter the reactions of the?
Beta oxidation process
Where is the Site where fibers may be metabolized to short-chain fatty acids?
Large intestine
Before fats can be metabolized in aerobic cellular respiration they must be converted to?
Fatty acids and glycerol.
What type of compound and bond is hydrolyzed by lipase?
I believe brown fat (commonly found in neonates) is metabolized by lipase into free fatty acids which are then hydrolyzed into glycerol and non estrified fatty acids.
How is it that other nutrients can be metabolized to yield ATP?
Apart from glucose you have Fatty acids, Glycerol and Proteins, which enters the Creb's cycle to yeald ATP, after break down.
What is the most common building blocks of lipids?
Fatty acids and glycerol
Which of the following is not true about the gluconeogenesis pathway's role in organismal homeostasis?
Gluconeogenesis occurs when an organism consumes abnormally high amounts of carbohydrates and fatty acids
Distinguish between saturated fatty acids and saturated fatty acids?
There is no difference between saturated fatty acids and saturated fatty acids. If you meant saturated fatty acids and UNsaturated fatty acids, then the unsaturated ones are the ones with double (or, theoretically, triple) bonds in the carbon chain.
What are unsaturated fatty acids?
Unsaturated fatty acids are fatty acids that have double bonds in their long carbon chains.
