What vitamin does not travel through the bloodstream in the form of a lipid micelle? Correct Answer- Vitamin C Which lipid has a 4-ring structure? Correct Answer- Sterol Which of the following situations is MOST likely to increase the rate of beta oxidation? Correct Answer- fasting A patient who is on a no-fat diet is at particular risk of deficiency in: Correct Answer- Vitamin A During starvation, triglycerides can help supply some of the body's glucose needs. Which breakdown product of triglycerides can be used to make glucose? Correct Answer- glycerol CH3(CH2)6CH=CH(CH2)2COOH Correct Answer- liquid at the lowest temperature Describe the steps involved in fatty acid synthesis Correct Answer- Acetyl-CoA is transported to the cytoplasm - Biotin transfers a carboxylate group to acetyl-CoA - the malonyl group is transferred to a carrier protein - malonyl ACP combines with acetylCoA, - malonyl-CoA is added repeatedly to the growing fatty acid What fatty acid will produce 8 Acetyl CoA molecules after it is completely metabolized via beta oxidation? Correct Answer- CH3(CH2)4CH=CH(CH2)4CH=CH(CH2)8COOHWhich set of molecules are produced by the beta oxidation of fatty a
