Βoxidation of palmitate (16: 0) produces (a) . the acetyl-coa produced are then oxidized in the citric acid cycle, resulting in the synthesis of (b) atp. the reduced cofactors produced during each round of β oxidation are oxidized in the electron transport chain, resulting in the synthesis of (c) atp. the overall net yield for complete oxidation of palmitate is (d) atp after accounting for the energy investment required for activation of the fatty acid.
