Name three organs where lipid digestion occurs?
Mouth, stomach, small intestineActually, lipid digestion only occurs in the small intestine. It does not occur anywhere else in the digestive tract.The enzyme which digests lipid is lipase. There are three types of lipase; lingual, gastric, and pancreatic. lingual is found in the mouth, gastric is found in the stomach, and pancreatic is found in the pancreas. While most of this lipid is digested in the small intestine, digestion occurs in other areas as well. The previous answer is correct; digestion of lipids occurs in the mouth, stomach, and small intestine.
