Lactic acid is a biproduct formed at the end of anaerobic respiration. This molecule is dangerous to cells of the body if it builds up too much.
Despite this, the formation of lactic acid is very important. Explain why the process of anaerobic respiration is so important (providing reference to glycolysis, the role of coenzymes, and ATP formation).
Give an account of β – oxidation of saturated even carbon fatty acid (Palmitic acid)along with the total ATPs obtained.
