Hello Debambarish2013!

<span>Fats are present in the form of large globules in the small intestine. The small intestine receives the secretions from the liver and the pancreas. The bile salts (from the liver) break down the large fat globules into smaller globules so that the pancreatic enzyme lipase can easily act on them. This is referred to as emulsification of fats. This process takes place in the small intestine.

Diffusion can also be defined as the random movement of molecules (fluids) along a concentration gradient until even distribution is achieved.

Therefore, diffusion is the movement of molecules along a concentration gradient by spontaneous random motion to achieve a uniform distribution.

The answer is: New interpretations are a part of science.

This characteristic is evident in this situation because earlier on, Linnaeus had pieces of evidence that minerals do not really fall under the classification of living things. He was at the forefront of taxonomy and classifications. His futher studies and research led him to a scientific conclusion that Minerals should be given a separate category because of the different physical attributes and properties it presents.
