Question

In animals, if the fuel consumed exceeds energy expended, fats are synthesized from carbohydrates in order to store the excess energy. Acetyl-coA Carboxylase catalyzes the first dedicated step in fatty acid synthesis. This enzyme responds to a large number of cellular signals. A logical strategy for the regulation of Acetyl-coA Carboxylase might include:

Answer 1

Answer:

B) Activation when the concentration of AMP is low vs concentration of ATP

Explanation:

The ACC enzyme is reserved by the AMP i.e. activated protein kinase (AMPK)

at the time when the AMP concentration is high because it represent the energy is deficit in the cell while on the other hand the lower AMP versus ATP concentration represent that the surplus energy i.e. stored

So ACC enzyme could be activated

Therefore the option b is correct
