Answer:

X) C. to transport fats

Y) C. to secrete enzymes

Step-by-step explanation:

The epithelium or "Y" is responsible for the absorption of nutrients, and the protection of the human body from microbial infections.

The lacteal or "X" absorbs dietary fats in the villi of the small intestine. It absorbs and transports large molecules, fats, and lipids in the digestive system.

Hope this helped :]
