Answer: Oxidation of body fatty acids

Explanation:

Once energy reserve has been depleted during starvation, the body switches to FAT OXIDATION.

The oxidation of long chain fatty acids to acetyl-CoA is a central energy-yielding pathway.

The acetyl-CoA generated enters the CITRIC ACID CYCLE and finally the ELECTRON TRANSPORT SYSTEM yielding ENERGY in form of ATP.

So, during starvation energy utilization switches TO oxidation of fatty acids.
