Answer:

Malonyl-CoA, a key intermediate in fatty acid synthesis, inhibits carnitine acyltransferase I, thereby blocking the entry of fatty acyl units into the mitochondrion for oxidation.

Fatty acyl-CoAs, the substrates for fatty acid oxidation, inhibit fatty acid synthesis by interfering with the polymerization of acetyl-CoA.

Hormonal effects on adipocytes are opposed; insulin promotes fatty acid synthesis by several mechanisms; while glucagon promotes fat breakdown and fatty acid oxidation
