How is Acetyl CoA transferred across the inner mitochondrial membrane?

CPT1 converts it to Acyl-O-Carnitine, then CPT uses Acyl CoA to transfer it back on the side of the matrix

Not gonna confuse you- that's the answer

Why does Malonyl CoA (produced by F.A production) inhibit CPT1?

Because if F.A's are being produced, the body needs them, so they don't get oxidized in the cell that produced them and waste the energy
