a) Compare ATP yield from the complete oxidation of hexanoic acid and glucose. (4)

b) Use theß-oxidation ofpolyunsaturated 18 carbon containing fatty acid to acetyl-CoA to explain the involvement of a variety of enzymes in this process. (10)

c) What is meant by the terms:saturatedandunsaturatedfatty acids, and give an example in each case? Do unsaturated fatty acids undergo the similar normal ß-oxidation cycle as saturated fatty acids? Explain in details your answer. (5)

Cells rely on two additional enzymes to complete the ß-oxidation of unsaturated fatty acids. What are the functions of these enzymes
