A virus is basically a shell of DNA. It floats around until it finds a cell to latch onto. It then tricks the cell into absorbing the virus and the virus unleashes the DNA its carrying telling the cell to quit doing its job, and make more of the virus. <span />

Answer:
The third stage in the synthesis of fatty acids is the synthesis of palmitic acid (letter e)
Explanation:
The synthesis of fatty acids takes place in the cytoplasm of the cell. The first step is the transport of acetyl-CoA to the cytoplasm. This came in the form of citrate usually from the pyruvate generated in the glycolysis from the mitochondria. The citrate is enzymatically transformed into acetyl-CoA.
Once the acetyl-CoA is in the cytoplasm, this is transformed into malonyl-CoA. This molecule will be the donor of two carbons in the synthesis of fatty acids.
In the final step takes place a cyclic process of reactions (condensation, reduction, hydration and second reduction) to synthesize the palmitic acid ( 16 carbons) by the fatty acid synthase.

Answer:
because it happens in that order, and repeats multiple times after the first time.
