Animals are not able to convert fatty acids into carbohydrates. The net synthesis of 1 mol of oxaloacetate from 2 mol of acetyl‑CoA by the citric acid cycle does not occur because 1 mol of oxaloacetate is used in the cycle for each one generated. Plants are able to convert 2 mol of acetyl‑CoA into 1 mol of oxaloacetate with only two additional enzymes not found in animals. This process is called the glyoxylate cycle, and it occurs in organelles called glyoxysomes. Identify the enzyme in each step of the glyoxylate cycle. Not all the enzyme names will be used.

The human eye contains a molecule called 11-cis-retinal that changes shape when struck with light of sufficient energy. the change in shape triggers a series of events that results in an electrical signal being sent to the brain that results in vision. the minimum energy required to change the conformation of 11-cis-retinal within the eye is about 164 kj/mol.
