What prohibits lipids from being a readily available energy source? a. fat must be broken down into fatty acids before being converted to glucose. b. lipids are structural components, so they are a last-resort energy source. c. lipids are only used to create enzymes, hormones, and antibodies. d. the conversion of fat to glucose is controlled by insulin.

“Fat must be broken down into fatty acids before being converted to glucose” prohibits lipids from being a readily available energy source.

Lipids are a group of naturally occurring molecules that include fats, waxes, sterols, fat-soluble vitamins (such as vitamins A, D, E, and K), monoglycerides, diglycerides, triglycerides, phospholipids, and others.

The correct answer between all the choices given is the first choice or letter A. I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.
