In untreated type 1 diabetes, the hepatocyte's citric acid cycle becomes overwhelmed with acetyl‑CoA from excessive fatty acid oxidation. Although the excess acetyl‑CoA is not toxic, it must be diverted into the formation of ketone bodies: acetone, acetoacetate, and D‑β‑hydroxybutyrate. What problem would arise if the excess acetyl-CoA were not converted to ketone bodies?

a. Fatty acid oxidation would stop when all the COA is bound as acetyl-CoA.
b. While acetyl-CoA is not toxic, it inhibits D-β- ohydroxyacyI-CoA dehydrogenase.
c. While acetyl-CoA is not toxic, it prevents transfer of fatty acids into the mitochondria by forming acetyl carnitine.
d. Formation of acetyl-CoA requires uptake of a proton, and the increased pH inhibits further oxidation.

After frida stops exercising, she continues to breathe heavily. what is most likely occurring in her body? heavy breathing during exercise has produced an oxygen surplus in her muscles. this oxygen is being transported to her lungs. this is a result of aerobic respiration. heavy breathing during exercise has produced a carbon dioxide surplus in her muscles. lactate is being transported to her liver. this is a result of aerobic respiration. strenuous exercise has caused her body to be in carbon dioxide debt, and she is breathing hard while lactate is transported to the liver. this is a result of anaerobic respiration. strenuous exercise has caused her body to be in oxygen debt, and she is breathing hard while lactate is transported to the liver. this is a result of anaerobic respiration.
