The givn figure indicates the inteerrelationship among meabolic pathways. Identify A to D

Options

A. `{:(A,B,C,D),("Fat"," DHAP"," Acetyl CoA ","Protein"):}`
B. `{:(A,B,C,D),("Acetyl CoA"," Fat"," DHAP"," Protein"):}`
C. `{:(A,B,C,D),("Fat"," DHAP"," Protein"," Acetyl CoA"):}`
D. `{:(A,B,C,D),("Protein"," Acetyl CoA"," Fat"," DHAP"):}`

Answer

C

Explanation

* Fats are first broken down into glycerol and fatty acids. Fatty acids are degraded into acetyl COA and enter the pathway. Glycerol would enter the pathway after being converted to phosphoglyceraldehyde.
* Proteins are degraded by proteases into amino acids and then degrade into acetyl COA
* Carbohydrates degrade into pyruvate and then to acetyl COA .
