Answer:
The correct answer is C fatty acid oxidation would stop when all of the CoA is bound as acetyl CoA.
Explanation:
Acetyl CoA is the principle end product of beta oxidation of even chain fatty acid such as palmitic acid.
When the cellelar label of actyl CoA increases at that time the excess acetyl CoA is converted to ketone bodies by the process called ketogenesis.
According to the question if the excess acetyl CoA is not converted to ketone bodies then it will interfere with the oxidation of fatty acid because fatty acid molecules will not get any CoA SH molecule to activate themselves to initiate a new round of beta oxidation.
As a result fatty acid oxidation will stop.
Answer:
Four moles of electrons
Explanation:
The reactions in a breathalyzer are redox reactions. Fuel cell breathalyzers consists of fuel cells with platinum electrodes. The current produced depends on the amount of alcohol in the breath. Detection of alcohol involves the oxidation of ethanol to ethanoic acid. The two half cells set in the process are;
Anode;
C2H5OH(aq) + 4OH^-(aq) ----------> CH3COOOH(aq) + 3H2O(l) + 4e
Cathode;
O2(g) + 2H2O(l) +4e--------> 4OH^-(aq)
Hence four electrons are transferred in the process.

<u>Le Châtelier's principle</u><u>:</u>
When a stress is applied to a system at equilibrium, the system will respond by shifting in the direction that opposes/ minimizes the effect of the stress.
• This stress could be the addition or removal of a product or reactant, changes in the concentration of the products or reactants, or a change in temperature.
☆ Why can heat be written on the same side of the products when the reaction is exothermic?
• Exothermic means that heat is released, thus heat can be treated as a product.
• I like to remember it as Exothermic → Exit
