∙ 10y agoOne example of a chemical change is in fats. Triglycerides are broken down to free fatty acids and mono-glycerides, which are then absorbed by intestinal enterocytes. There they are recombined into triglycerides, and packaged into large lipoprotein particles called chylomicrons which then pass into the body via the lymph.
