My biology teacher said that our mitochondrian only has enzymes to break carbohydrates to get energy.Molecules like lipids and proteins are first converted to carbohydrates and then energy is extracted from them.
Is it right? Do lipds and proteins not directly broken down to get energy?

Say a tortoise started walking, and once he got a certain distance ahead, Achilles began running after him to prove he was faster. Archilles could never pass him up, because once Achilles got to where the tortoise was when he began running after him, the tortoise would be some distance ahead, and by the time Achilles got to that distance, the tortoise would have moved even further ahead, ad infinitum. Thus, Achilles could never overtake the tortoise, even though he IS clearly faster. Prove me wrong.
