Question 35 What prosthetic group co-factor is employed by the enzyme in problem 34? Group of answer choices Thiamine pyrophosphate Pyridoxal-5'-phosphate This enzyme does not require any co-factor Biotin Coenzyme Q Question 36 Complete oxidation (to CO2) of which of the following yields the most ATP? Group of answer choices One stearic acid molecule One maltose (an α(1,4) linkage of two glucose monomers) disaccharide One palmitic acid molecule Two glucose monomers One glucose monomer Question 37 Which of the following enzymes is responsible for activating fatty acids for β-oxidation? Group of answer choices Acyl-CoA kinase Acyl-CoA synthetase Acyl-CoA dehydrogenase Acyl-CoA decarboxylase Acyl-CoA synthase Question 38 What is the name of the molecule that is responsible for moving activated forms of fatty acids into the eukaryotic cell compartment where β-oxidation occurs?

The Ě -oxidation of fatty acids requires Coenzyme A, FAD, and NAD+. Both A and C are correct. All of the above are correct. The product of the oxidation of odd-chain fatty acids is converted to succinyl-CoA. The options are Malonyl-CoA, Propionyl-CoA, Acetyl-CoA, and Oxaloacetate. The following reaction requires the presence of OH, CH, CoA, and ICOA. The options are Carnitine, CoASH, NAD+, FAD, and Water. Which of the following is not one of the ketone bodies?
