<prompt> Please answer with one of the option in the bracket. Write reasoning in between . Write answer in between .Q:A startup is working on a novel project in which they claim they can replicate the organelle that is defective in MELAS syndrome. Which of the following metabolic processes must they be able to replicate if their project is to mimic the metabolic processes of this organelle?? A: Glycolysis, B: Fatty acid synthesis, C: Fatty acid beta oxidation, D: Hexose monophaste shunt, E: Cholesterol synthesis,  <response>: This is a question about MELAS mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes syndrome. MELAS syndrome is caused by defects in mitochondria, which are organelles that generate ATP through oxidative phosphorylation. The key clue in the question is replicate the organelle that is defective in MELAS syndrome. Since MELAS involves defective mitochondria, the startup must be trying to replicate mitochondrial function. Mitochondria are responsible for oxidative phosphorylation and beta-oxidation of fatty acids. Therefore, the answer must involve one of those metabolic processes.C: Fatty acid beta oxidation
