Explanation:

Beta-oxidation is  the breakdown of fatty acids.

  • Beta oxidation is a process in which fatty acids are break down in the cytosol (prokaryotic cells) and in mitochondria(eukaryotes cells) to produce energy.
  • beta-oxidation is the  metabolic process in which the fatty acids gets oxidized,it takes occur in four steps
  1. dehydrogenation
  2. hydration
  3. oxidation
  4. thyolisis.
