Fat Digestion is Accomplished By

Question

Fat digestion is accomplished by
A) chyme and trypsin.
B) bile and lipase.
C) chyle and bile.
D) amylase and ptyalin.

Accepted Answer

Fat digestion is accomplished by bile, which emulsifies the fat into smaller droplets, and lipase, which breaks down the fat molecules into fatty acids and glycerol. Chyme and trypsin are involved in protein digestion, chyle is a mixture of lymph and chylomicrons that is absorbed in the small intestine, and amylase and ptyalin are involved in carbohydrate digestion.
