Define how the synthesis of fatty acids

Reference no: EM13244560

In the mammalian system, typical fatty acid synthesized for energy and storage are generally have 16 carbons. However, the typical fatty acid found in breast milk is C12 to C14. Explain how the synthesis of fatty acids in the mammary glands differes from the synthesis of fatty acids in the liver. Be specific in regards to biochemistry (i.e. what is different)?
