Third option

Beta oxidation is the process by which fatty acid molecules are broken down to release ATP. It takes place in mitochondrial matrix.

Beta oxidation of fatty acid containing even number of carbon release only acetyl coenzyme a in the end along with ATP.

Beta oxidation of fatty acid containing odd number of carbon release one molecule of propanoyl coenzyme A and rest all are acetyl coenzyme A. In the end one molecule of acetyl coenzyme and one molecule of propanoyl coenzyme A are released.

The use of arsenate instead of phosphate by glyceraldehyde 3.phosphate dehydrogenase produces 1-arseno-3-phosphoglycerate. Assume that the presence of arsenate only affects the glycolysis step catalyzed by glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase and that 1-arseno-3.phosphoglycerite spontaneously hydrolyres to form 3-phosphoglycerate. How many ATP molecules would a single round of glycolysis consume and produce in this scenario? ATP...

    From the information in Chapter 8 on metabolism and Appendix A, we can see the multiple metabolic pathways involved in generating ATP from the breakdown of the nutrients glucose, protein and fats. Glycolysis generates pyruvate, the pyruvate then becomes Acetyl CoA, which enters the Krebs Cycle (TCA), products of the Krebs Cycle then enter the Electron Transport Chain (ETC) where ATP is the final product. Fat breakdown (beta-oxidation) also generates Acetyl CoA, which then enters the Krebs Cycle to produce...
