The Acetyl-CoA Derived from Glyoxysomal

Question

The acetyl-CoA derived from glyoxysomal $\beta$-oxidation is converted to carbohydrate via
A) The glyoxylate cycle
B) The citric acid cycle
C) Gluconeogenesis
D) Both A and B are correct
E) Both A and C are correct

Accepted Answer

The glyoxylate cycle allows organisms to convert fats into sugars, and the acetyl-CoA derived from the β-oxidation in glyoxysomes can enter this cycle. The carbohydrates formed can then be further processed through gluconeogenesis to form glucose or other sugars, making option E (Both A and C are correct) the correct answer.
