How are fats utilised as substrates in aerobic respiration?
Asked by Topperlearning User | 14 Jul, 2014, 12:19: PM
answered-by-expert Expert Answer

Fats are first broken down into glycerol and fatty acids.

Fatty acids are first degraded to acetyl CoA and then they enter the TCA cycle.

Glycerols are converted into phosphoglyceraldehyde, and they can then enter the glycolytic pathway.
