Multiple Choice
Cardiac muscle cells need to generate significant amounts of ATP to allow for constant contractile activity.As a result, they primarily depend upon beta-oxidation of fatty acids, which has a higher energy yield than the catabolism of glucose.What would be the ATP yield for beta-oxidation of a hypothetical 10-carbon fatty acid?
A) 32 ATP
B) 35 ATP
C) 50 ATP
D) 62 ATP
