Homework Answers
Ans:- Acetyl CoA.
Explanation:- Acetyl-CoA acts as the precursor for the synthesis of fatty acids thus plays an essential role in fatty acid synthesis.
d. Acetyl CoA
Acetyl CoA serves as the starting material for the biosynthesis of fatty acids (lipogenesis) and is also a key intermediate in fatty acid metabolism. It is a central molecule in many metabolic pathways, including the synthesis and breakdown of fatty acids.
