• All are metabolic processes involving fatty acids, but they have different pathways.
• Beta-oxidation is fatty acid oxidation to acetyl CoA.
• Lipolysis is the breakdown of triglycerides to yield fatty acids and glycerol.
• Lipogenesis is the synthesis of fatty acids and triglycerides.
• Ketogenesis is the conversion of fatty acids and ketogenic amino acids to acetyl CoA and ketone bodies.
