Enzyme deficiencies that affect the fatty acid β-oxidation pathway are often diagnosed by examining the different metabolic inte
rmediates in the bloodstream. An individual with a deficiency in an enzyme required for β oxidation would have which of the following results if the ketone bodies and glucose concentration of their blood were tested after fasting
The deficiency of the enzyme required for β oxidation are diagnosed by examining different metabolic intermediates in the bloodstream. So if an individual having the deficiency of the enzyme required for the β oxidation the blood was tested after fasting and testes the ketone bodies and glucose concentration result is Hypoketotic hypoglycemia.
In energy partitioning, metabolizable energy less less heat increment (energy lost as heat) gives the net energy. The net energy is further broken down to energy used for production and energy used for maintenance.
