7. High fatty acids are breaking by
(a) $\beta$-oxidation
(b) $\alpha$-oxidation
(c) Glycolysis
(d) All of these

Dear student.

The answer is ​(a) β-oxidation.

Higher fatty acids refers to the fatty acids with high molecular weight. For example oleic acid (C ₁₇ H ₃₃ COOH), stearic acid (C ₁₇ H ₃₅ COOH), palimitic acid (C ₁₅ H ₃₁ COOH).
β-oxidation forms acetyl CoA, which can enter different other cycles such as Kreb's cycle.
