Question

1) Long-chain fatty acyl-CoAs are transported across the mitochondrial inner membrane using the carrier ________.

2) Mono- and poly-unsaturated fatty acids are produced in the endoplasmic reticulum by desaturase enzymes.

3) While a number of hormones can stimulate lipolysis, the primary hormonal effects in adipose tissue are mediated by ________ in response to stress and by ________ during fasting.

4) ________ are formed (primarily in the liver) when acetyl CoA accumulates beyond its capacity to be oxidized or used for fatty acid synthesis.

Explanation / Answer

1) Long - chain fatty acyl-coA are transported across the mitochondrial inner membrane using the carrier proteins.

2) while a number of hormones can stimulate lipolysis , the primary hormonal effect in adipose tissue are mediated by epinephrine in response to stress and by glucagon, during fasting.

4) Ketone bodbodies are form when acetyl CoA accumulates beyond its capacity to be oxidised or used for fatty acid synthesis.

Hopefully it helps if problems arises plz comment, than u..
