Fats are digested by <span>Bile salts which break them down into smaller globules increasing the efficiency of enzyme action. The pancreas secretes pancreatic juice, which contains enzymes like trypsin for </span>digesting<span> proteins and lipase for breaking down emulsified </span>fats<span>. The walls of the small intestine contain glands, which secrete intestinal juice.</span>
<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. </span> Hope this Helps! Have A Wonderful Day! :)
