Glucose, Hepatic glycogenolysis, and gluconeogenesis During the fasted state, the skeletal muscle uses ______ as fuel and the pathway is _______. Fatty acids, Lipolysis in the adipose Process of generating acetyl-CoA, NADH and FADH2 from the oxidation of free fatty acids taken up by the peripheral tissues β - oxidation Process of releasing free fatty acids from triacylglycerols stored in the adipose in the fasted state Lipolysis Where does beta oxidation occur? mitochondria What enzyme is used to add acyl-CoA to free fatty acids which is able to travel across the outer mitochondrial membrane? Acyl-CoA synthetase Carnitine and Acyl-CoA use what enzyme to transfer the acyl group to carnitine to synthesize acyl
