Based on your observation, she was very thin, her hair was grey to red, sparse and pluckable. The skin was dry, shiny and generally hypopigmented. Skeletal X-ray showed generalized osteoporosis. While her Acetyl coenzyme A reading is normal, further biochemical analysis of mitochondria revealed reduced ATP presence in her system. Identify her health and medical issue and correlate those issue to the biological pathways in Lecture 14 - Glycolysis, Kreb Cycle and Electron Transport System. Then find a solution to help the girl.
