C. It is converted to acetyl-CoA for the production of fatty acids to produce ATP
D. It is used as a carbon source for hte synthesis of amino acids for protein production
E. It is stored in the muscle tissue until oxygen rise and it can be used by the TCA cycle
- Answer-B. It is transported to the liver for gluconeogenesis to produce glucose
