Explanation / Answer

12. During fat mobilization , triglycerides are converted to fatty acids and glycerol.

13. A fatty acid loses two(2) carbon atoms by going through one loop of the fatty acid spiral.

As it gives acetyl CoA.

14. Complete oxidation of 12 carbon fatty acid produces six(6) molecules of acetyl CoA

15. Complete oxidation of 12 carbon fatty acid produces five(5) molecules of FADH2
