The synthesis of fatty acids starts with a preparratory phase in which acetyl CoA is translocated from mitochondria to the cytosol. However, it cannot pass through the membrane, so it is translocated as citrate that is cleaved to acetyl CoA and oxaloacetate.
In the cytosol, acetyl CoA is transformed to malonyl-CoA, that is, a three carbon compound. Fatty acid synthesis starts with the transfer of the acetyl group from acetyl-CoA to fatty acid synthase.
Two-carbon groups supplied by malonyl-CoA, are supplemented to the developing acyl chain in a series of steps involving condensation, reduction, and dehydration reactions. Elongation of the fatty acid chain ceases at 16 carbon atoms, after 7 cycles, as the free fatty acid is discharged.
<span>carbon has four valence electrons in its outermost shell .. which makes it able to form four bonds to complete its valence shell ..
it forms large number of chains with its own self which makes it useful .. also it forms bonds with oxygen and hydrogen forming large organic compounds of great importance. </span>

Answer:
Cardiac muscle.
Explanation:
Cardiac muscle is also known as heart muscle. These muscles regulate the proper working and functioning of the heart.
Cardiac muscles are involuntary muscles and show striations under the microscope. These muscles are uninucleate and connected by the intercalated disc. Cardiac muscles are branched so that each cardiac cells may attach with atleast with or four other cardiac cells.
Thus, the correct answer is option (A).
Answer:
Mitosis occurs in Interphase and cytokinesis occurs in Anaphase
Explanation:
The outside of the phospholipid membrane is hydrophilic which attracts water and the inner lipid layer is hydrophobic which repels water causing water to be pulled into or out of the cell based on the concentration gradient of solutes
