Expert Answer
Digestion of fats in human beings:
- Fats can be digested with the help of bile released from the liver.
- Fats are present in the intestine in the form of large globules, which makes it difficult for the enzymes to act on them.
- Bile salts present in the bile break fats into smaller globules to increase the action of enzymes. This process is known as emulsification.
- Later, steapsin, a pancreatice lipase acts on the emulsified fats and breaks them down into fatty acids and glycerol.
- This aids in easy digestion of food.
