Question

Which of the following compounds produces the most energy upon oxidation all the way to CO2?

a. Methane
b. Glucose
c. Palmitic acid
d. Mannose

Answer 1

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: C) Palmitic acid

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of the energy which are produced by the component during the oxidation process are measured in the number of the ATP molecules, which successively generated energy. As, the palmitic acid are generated most of its energy when it is oxidized it generated 131 ATP molecules approximately. Palmitic acid are saturated fatty acids.
