The beta oxidation pathway degrades activated fatty acids (acyl-coa) to acetyl-coa, which then enters the citric acid cycle. additional enzymes are required to oxidize unsaturated, odd-chain, long-chain, and branched fatty acids. which of the following statements are true? a. a 14-carbon monounsaturated fatty acid with cis configuration yields more atp than a 14-carbon saturated fatty acid. b. enoyl-coa isomerase, an enzyme that converts cis double bonds to trans double bonds in fatty acid metabolism, bypasses a step that reduces q, resulting in a higher atp yield. c. even-chain saturated fatty acids are oxidized to acetyl-coa in the beta oxidation pathway. d. complete catabolism of the three-carbon remnant of a 15-carbon fatty acid requires some citric acid cycle enzymes. e. trans double bonds in unsaturated fatty acids are not recognized by beta oxidation enzymes. f. the final round of beta oxidation for a 13-carbon saturated fatty acid yields acetyl-coa and propionyl-coa, a three-carbon fragment.

Plz choose one of the compounds from the table and explain how you know the numbers of atoms in your formula. is it possible for two different compounds to be made from the exact same two elements? why or why not? with a limited number of elements (less than 120 are known), does this mean we also have a small number of compounds or do we have a large number of compounds in this world?
