Germinating Plant Seeds Can Convert Acetyl-CoA (Obtained from Fatty Acids

Multiple Choice

Germinating plant seeds can convert acetyl-CoA (obtained from fatty acids stored as oils) into carbohydrates,whereas animals are incapable of converting fatty acids into glucose.This difference is due to the fact that:

A) animals have glycogen and don't need to make glucose from fatty acids.
B) plants use the glyoxylate cycle to convert two acetyl CoA to oxaloacetate,a precursor for gluconeogenesis.
C) plant seeds use photosynthesis to make sugar.
D) animals use the citric acid cycle selectively for energy production,whereas plants primarily use glycolysis.
E) B and D
