Question

question 39
which of the following is an anabolic pathway?
a beta - oxidation
b glycolysis
c glycogenolysis
d lipogenesis

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Anabolic pathways build larger molecules from smaller ones. Lipogenesis is the synthesis of lipids (like triglycerides) from smaller precursors (e.g., acetyl - CoA), which is an anabolic process. Glycolysis breaks down glucose to pyruvate (catabolic). Glycogenolysis breaks down glycogen to glucose - 1 - phosphate (catabolic). Beta - oxidation breaks down fatty acids to acetyl - CoA (catabolic).

Answer:

D. Lipogenesis
