Complete the sentences to correctly describe steps in fatty acid synthesis. move the terms to the appropriate blanks. some terms
Eddi Din [679]

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.

bazaltina [42]
Ave you ever wondered why one area of the world is a desert, another a grassland, and another a rainforest? Why are there different forests and deserts, and why are there different types of life in each area? The answer is climate. 
<span>Climate is the characteristic condition of the atmosphere near the earth's surface at a certain place on earth. It is the long-term weather of that area (at least 30 years). This includes the region's general pattern of weather conditions, seasons and weather extremes like hurricanes, droughts, or rainy periods. Two of the most important factors determining an area's climate are air temperature and precipitation. </span>
