Function of Bile juice
Bile juice helps in emulsificaton of fats.
How Bile emulsifies fats
Bile is alkaline solution. Its molecules have dual nature (one end is attracted to water molecule while other is attracted to aft molecule). Thus its molecules remain in between water molecules and fat molecules (emulsification process).
If bile molecules were not present between fats and water, the fat molecules would be repelled by water molecules and be attracted to each other. The fat molecules would merge together because fats are insoluble in water. The merged fats would not be easily broken down with lipase (fat digesting enzyme).
So bile attractes the fat molecules and separate them from each other. It makes the fat digestion easier.
Bile acts on lipids, by emulsifying them to increase their surface area. The bile also neutralises the chyme, which provides an ideal pH for lipases to work.

It is the organ that stores bile.
It is the organ that stores bile.
The position of the liver will directly affect the digestion process. The liver will usually secrete bile, which will help in the breakdown of fats.
It secretes bile for fat digestion. The hypatocystes (cells) of liver produce bile. The bile is stored in gallbladder. The bile enters the duodenum and emulsifies the fats. It also reduces the acidity of chyme.
It was able to break down the fat into fat droplets!
It plays a role in the oxidation of cholesterol into bile salts in the liver. This allows the cholesterol in to be excreted out of the body by changing it into a water soluble form (bile salts).
It doesn't, bile is useful in the digestion of fats.
The parasympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system stimulates digestion. It activates salivation, which functions in digestion as the beginning of breaking the food down. It also stimulates the gall bladder to release bile for digestion. Digestion in the small intestine is increased and gastric juice in the stomach is secreted.
