What is correct about C18:1 12 fatty acid catabolism? I) C18:1 12 fatty acid will undergo 2

What is correct about C18:1 Δ12 fatty acid catabolism? 

I) C18:1 Δ12 fatty acid will undergo 2 beta-oxidation cycles before the action of enoyl-CoA isomerase (double elimination). 

II) C18:1 Δ12 fatty acid will undergo 6 beta-oxidation cycles before the action of enoyl-CoA isomerase (double elimination) 

III) Compared to C20:0 arachidic acid catabolism, C18:1 Δ12 catabolism shows less 1 acetyl-CoA, 2 NADH and 1 FADH2.

 IV) Comparing with the balance of the C20:0 arachidic acid catabolism, the C18:1 Δ12 catabolism shows less 1 acetyl-CoA, 1 NADH and 2 FADH2.
