fats are broken down in the liver and gaul bladder
this is only
partialy right if i am not mistaken they are actually broken down using bile from the liver that was stored in the gaul bladder but am not 100% shure i was looking for this question and saw this and just had to replace it.
Chemical digestion starts in the stomach. In the walls of the stomach are structures called pits which are effectively just that. Some of the cells lining these pits secrete a zymogen called pepsinogen, the innactive form of pepsin. Pepsin is the enxyme that breaks peptide bonds, thus it breaks down proteins. Pepsinogen is completely useless for protein digestion and to make into the active pepsim molecule a very low pH is required. To create this environment there are other cells in the pits that produce hydrochloric acid. In short The stomach is the begining of protein digestion.
stomach and small intestine.....this is for NovaNET users. ha. (:Any food you eat travels down your esophagus and to your stomach. Proteins are the only of the three macromolecules that is digested directly in the stomach by your hydrochloric acid and is broken down into amino acids. The amino acids eventually reach the small intestine where they will be absorbed by the villi in the lining of the intestines. Then your blood will carry and diffuse these nutrients by means of blood capillaries to other vital parts of your body.
The stomach and small intestine.
Fat is digested in the beginning of the small intestine by a enzyme called bile
bile is produced in the liver and stored in the gall bladder(a small sack connected to the liver)
Fat is chemically digested in the stomach and in the liver. This is why sometimes people who eat a lot of fat may have a fatty liver.
Partial digestion take place in stomach and maximum digestion and absorption is in duodenum
Lipase is produced in the pancreas primarily, but it can also be found in the stomach and mouth. Lipase facilitates the absorption of of fats by the intestines.
Fats are digested in the small intestine.

No digestion actually happens in the pancreas, but the pancreas does secret enzymes that help break down carbohydrates, proteins, and fats into the digestive system.
enzymes break down fats
The plasma membranes of cells in the lining of the small intestine contain brush border enzymes, which are responsible for the final breakdown of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Some examples of these digestive enzymes include maltase, sucrase, lactase (to break down carbohydrates), peptidase (to break down proteins), and lipase (to break down fats).
Generally speaking, there are three classes of enzyme in our digestive system. They are listed below, alongside the molecules they break down.Lipase - lipidsCarbohydrase - carbohydratesProteases - proteins
There are actually three organs that secrete digestive substances into the small intestine to help digest proteins, carbohydrates and fats. These organs are: - the liver - the pancreas - the gallbladder
Washing powder contain enzymes which break down fats and protein into simpler molecules
The digestive enzymes secreted by the pancreas help to break down fats, proteins and starch molecules.
carbohydrase lipase and protease amylase
The 3 main purposes of the digestive tract are: digest, absorb and eliminate. It digests food, absorbs the nutrients and eliminates the wastes.
Bile is the digestive juice from your liver. Bile salts break down fat. Hope this helps :)
Enzymes are needed to break fats down.

it produces bile and the gallbladder stores the bile
enzymes break down fats
Lipase is a digestive enzyme that in humans is secreted primarily by the pancreas. Its function is to break down fats in the digestive system into fatty acids and other components that can be absorbed by the intestines.
False, fats go to the lymphatic system.
They both break down a certain thing. Bile breaks down fats while chewing breaks down carbohydrates in simple sugar
