fatty acid oxidation requires oxygen principally in heart and liver and especially during fasting when fatty acid uptake is high....(ketogenesis in liver and metabolic req. by heart) chronic anemia :arrow: relatively low oxygen tension :arrow: low breakdown of fatty acid principally in liver and heart which undergoes fatty change :arrow: increase blood level of fatty acids (hydrolysis of TGs) :arrow: spill over in the urine :arrow: reuptake in the proximal tubule plz correct
