Regulation of fatty acid metabolism is shown by the following strategies. Which statement is NOT true? Degradation and oxidation of fatty acids occur in the tochondria while fatty acid synthesis occurs in the cytoplasm. Reducing power is supplied by NADPH in the cytoplasm Acetyl CoA is produced in the mitochondria, which is not permeable to this metabolite and requires an elaborate mechanism for transport.D. ATP is required in fatty acid synthesis but not in its breakdown, which produces it. . ATP is required in fatty acid synthesis but not in its breakdown, which produces it. Enzymes found in the cytosol catalyzes fatty acid synthesis, while enzymes localized in the mitochondrial matrix catalyzes oxidation.
