Answer:
Here are the true statements
I) Oxidation of an odd‑chain fatty acid produces multiple acetyl groups and one propionyl group attached to CoA molecules.
II) Oxidation of an even‑chain fatty acid produces multiple acetyl groups bound to CoA molecules.
Explanation:
Oxidation of fatty acids is the breaking down a fatty acid into units of acetyl-CoA. It occurs in the mitochondria, and usually in the presence of oxygen.
Even-chain fatty acids have even number of carbon atoms e.g palmitic acid (16C) stearic acid (18C) etc. Their oxidation yields only acetyl-CoA units.
Odd-chain fatty acids possess odd number of carbon atoms e.g heptadecanoic acid (17C). Their oxidation yields acetyl-CoA units and a propionyl Co-A unit
