the synthesis of fatty acids from glucose in the liver is best described by which one of the following?

Respuesta :

The synthesis of fatty acids from glucose in the liver is best described by Glucose is transformed into fatty acids in the cytosol.

It is transformed into fatty acids in the cytosol, with the exception of the mitochondrial processes where pyruvate is changed into citrate (pyruvate to oxaloacetate, pyruvate to acetyl-CoA, and oxaloacetate and acetyl-CoA condense to form citrate).A metabolic process called glucoseneogenesis produces glucose from non-carbohydrate molecules, from the breakdown of amino acids or fatty acids, and from many other metabolic processes including pyruvate and lactate. One of the key strategies utilised by people and many other animals to keep blood glucose levels stable and prevent low levels of blood glucose is this pathway.
