Question

Bile salts bind at their hydrophobic regions to large fat globules within the chyme that enters the duodenum. bile salts break up the fat globule into smaller fat droplets. this role of bile salts is best described as ________. bile salts bind at their hydrophobic regions to large fat globules within the chyme that enters the duodenum. bile salts break up the fat globule into smaller fat droplets. this role of bile salts is best described as ________. lipid emulsification lipid digestion lipid ingestion lipid absorption

Answer 1

Answer- LIPID EMULSIFICATION

Lipid emulsification provides a larger surface area for pancreatic lipase (digestive enzyme) to act on fats by breaking down large fat globules into tiny droplets in the duodenum. Pancreatic lipase breaks down fats into fatty acids and glycerol.
