Multiple Choice Question

The complete beta-oxidation of a single 16-carbon saturated fatty acid molecule (Palmitic acid) results in the production of exactly how many molecules of Acetyl-CoA?एकल 16-कार्बन संतृप्त फैटी एसिड अणु (पामिटिक एसिड) के पूर्ण बीटा-ऑक्सीकरण (beta-oxidation) के परिणामस्वरूप एसिटाइल-CoA के ठीक कितने अणुओं का उत्पादन होता है?

  • A
    16
    16
  • B
    8
    8
  • C
    7
    7
  • D
    4
    4
Explanation:
Beta-oxidation cleaves the fatty acid chain into two-carbon segments. Therefore, a 16-carbon chain undergoes 7 cycles of cleavage to produce exactly 8 molecules of Acetyl-CoA.
बीटा-ऑक्सीकरण फैटी एसिड श्रृंखला को दो-कार्बन खंडों में काटता है। 16-कार्बन श्रृंखला 8 एसिटाइल-CoA अणुओं का उत्पादन करने के लिए 7 चक्रों से गुजरती है।
