Are my answers correct ?Thank you in advance.

Organisms that can carry out the glyoxylate cycle are able to achieve net synthesis of carbohydrates form stored fat. The statement is correct. The statement is incorrect Question 3 1 pts Oxaloacetate in the mitochondrial matrix can be reduced to L-malate, and the L-malate can be transported to the cytoplasm where it can be re-oxidized back to oxaloacetate by a cytosolic malate dehydrogenase and thus serves as an intermediate in gluconeogenesis. This process can be characterized as a(n) reaction sequence. anaplerotic O cataplerotic Question 4 1 pts The amino acid glutamate can undergo a transamination reaction and thus be converted to alpha-ketoglutarate.
