Solution
The correct option is D Transamination
- Fatty acid break down takes place in the condition of starvation where the fatty acid is broken down to acetyl CoA which takes part in kerb cycle and provides further energy to the body.
- Embden meyerhof pathway is the glycolysis pathway which will produce pyruvic acid at the end of the process that converts in to acetyl CoA which takes part in kerb cycle.
- Sometimes when fatty acid are required the acetyl CoA is taken out of the pathway and converted to fatty acid by the fatty acid synthesis pathway.
- This is done by a reaction between acetyl CoA and NADPH.
- Transamination is the reaction which takes place for the formation of the amino acid by the transfer of the amino group from one amino acid to the other. And acetyl coA does not take part in this reaction for the formation of amino acid.
- Therefore the answer option 'Transamination' is correct.
