How are the glycerol and fatty acids absorbed in duodenum?
Glycerol and fatty acids are absorbed in the duodenum through the process of diffusion after digestion. Glycerol and fatty acids circulate into lymphatic vessels and do not circulate into the bloodstream.
What effects do fatty acids have on your body?
Fatty acids can have a number of bad effects on the body. They are known to increase cholesterol and improve the changes of contracting heart disease. These fatty acids are often found in foods such as red meats.
Difference between a saturated fatty acid and an unsaturated fatty acid?
Fatty acid is a carboxylic acid with a long aliphatic tail (chain), which is either saturated or unsaturated. A saturated fatty acid contains the maximum amount of hydrogen atoms. Saturated fatty acids are long-chain carboxylic acids that generally have between 12 and 24 carbon atoms and have no double bonds. They are saturated with hydrogen because saturated fatty acids have only single bonds, each carbon atom within the chain has 2 hydrogen atoms. Unsaturated fatty acids do not contain the maximum amount of hydrogen atoms, therefore two or more carbon atoms are attached with a double bond. Unsaturated fatty acids have one or more double bonds between carbon atoms.
Triglycerides can be classified by which of the following characteristics?
the length of the fatty acidsthe saturation of the fatty acidsthe shape of the fatty acids
What are the monomers of triglyceride?
1 glycerol and 3 fatty acids so the monomers basically are glycerol and fatty acids
How are the glycerol and fatty acids absorbed in duodenum?

Is chocolate milk fatty?
Yes, like all dairy products, it has a good amount of fat. See the related links for a video explanation.
Two substances are mixing together with food in the duodenum?
Secretin and Cholecystokinin are released from cells in the duodenal epithelium in response to acidic and fatty stimuli present there when the pylorus opens and releases gastric chyme into the duodenum for further konadigestion.
Which enzymes are used in the duodenum?
In the duodenum there is pancreatic lipase. This is an enzyme that breaks down fats into small enough pieces that you can absorb it to use it for energy/fuel. To be technical, fats in the duodenum are emulsified by bile (produced in the liver) and mixed micelles are formed (small "balls" of triglycerides, cholesterol, phospholipids, etc.). Pancreatic lipase will break down triglycerides in the mixed micelles into monoglycerides and free fatty acids. The enterocytes lining our small intestines will absorb monoglycerides and fatty acids.
Where does bile act in the alimentary canal?
Bile does not act in the alimentary canal until fatty foods enter the duodenum. The bile is produced in the liver, and then held in the gallbladder until it is needed.
What membrane is attacted to the lesser curvature of the stomach?
The lesser omentum - which is a membranous fatty tissue and part of the messentaries - attaches to the lesser curvature of the stomach, duodenum, and liver.
How is the duodenum protected from stomach acids?
The duodenum also regulates the rate of emptying of the stomach via hormonal pathways. Secretin and cholecystokinin are released from cells in the duodenal epithelium in response to acidic and fatty stimuli present there when the pylorus opens and releases gastric chyme into the duodenum for further digestion. These cause the liver and gall bladder to release bile, and the pancreas to release bicarbonate and digestive enzymes such as trypsin, lipase and amylase into the duodenum as they are needed. The bicarbonate released by the pancreas is to neutralize the hydrochloric acid coming from the stomach.
What enzyme is released when fats and proteins reach the duodenum?
Lipase is released from the pancreas and is secreted into the duodenal part of the small intestine. It acts on emulsified fats (when ) to produce fatty acids and glycerol. The protease pepsin is also released from the pancreas into the duodenum and acts on proteins to produce either Amino Acids or Peptides. Another protease called trypsin is released from the pancreas into the duodenum and acts on Peptides to produce Amino Acids.
What is the most likely explanation for the fatty liver that develops from protein deficiency?
inabllity of the liver to synthesize lipoproteins for fat export
What effects do fatty acids have on your body?
Fatty acids can have a number of bad effects on the body. They are known to increase cholesterol and improve the changes of contracting heart disease. These fatty acids are often found in foods such as red meats.
What does lipase break down?
Pepsin is found in the stomach, and breaks down long-chain proteins into shorter amino acids, whilst lipase is secreted into the duodenum by the pancreas to break down fats into their constituent parts: fatty acids and glycerol.
What is Hypertriglyceridemia?
It is when there is a high amount of triglycerides (fatty substances) in the blood. It is usually a symptom of a disorder
