FATS
The lacteal absorbs the products of lipid digestion from the small intestine to the bloodstream.
lacteal
Lacteal absorbs fatty acids. Glycerol is absorbed by both , blood capillaries and lacteal .
Much of the nutrients are absorbed by the small intestine, where the surface area is minimized by the villi, which absorbs the "soup" of food that has been digested by the duodenum, the stomach, and the mouth. The soup is absorbed by diffusion and reaches either the lacteal or capillaries. Lacteal carries fat, and blood vessels carries everything else such as glucose.The absorbed nutrients can now be used by the body.
Lacteal Fluid
Most nutrients are absorbed directly into the blood but fats are taken into the lacteal (part of the lymphatic system)
The smaller fat chains can do diffusion, but the larger ones have to do endocytosis.
Digestion is the breakdown of large food molecules into smaller molecules. The digested molecules are then absorbed into the bloodstream to be transported to the different parts of the body.
Ketones or phospholipids are the metabolic products for cholesterol breakdown.
Fatty acids and glycerol
Biodegradable refers to the nature of products that breakdown naturally. Products that breakdown in the environment are less polluting
Digestion is the breakdown of absorbed substances, Respiration, on the other hand, is the breakdown of food molecules with a release of energy.
