Where does digestion of fat take place in your body?
Lipids are digested and absorbed by a special process. Bile that is secreted by the gallbladder so that it can be absorbed and digested in the small intestine.It breaks down large pieces of fat into smaller pieces by the fat-digesting enzymes from the pancreas. triglycerides and bile form micelles which facilitates abosorbtion.once it is absorbed the bile and triglycerides reassembly and go back to the liver for reuse. Lipids are not water soluble so they are covered in a envelope of phospholipids and protein which forms lipoproteins Lipids provide us with structure and energy, most lipids are triglycerides that are stored in the adipose tissue. The triglycerides the we consume are used sometimes immediately to fuel the body or are stored in the adipose tissue. The adipose tissue is located under the skin and around our internal organs.
What is the function of the gallbladder and the location?
The gallbladder is located beneath the liver and stores bile produced by the liver until it is needed for digestion. When fatty foods enter the small intestine, the gallbladder releases bile to help break down fats for better absorption by the body.
What would happen if the small intestine is the same length as the large intestine?
Under the assumption the intestines would give the same amount of work per cm of length as the ones you have do... If the two intestines were as long as the large intestine currently is, you'd have to eat a lot more than you do now to get proper nutrition. The small intestine pulls nutrients out of the food, and the longer it has to work, the more it can get. If the two intestines were as long as the small intestine currently is, your stool would be excruciatingly dry. The large intestine draws water from the stool, and if it was over four times longer than it now is, you'd really be in trouble.

The small intestine are divided into three sections. In order of the digestive tract, they are the duodenum, jujenum, and the ilium. The small intestines are responsible for absorbing nutrients from the chyme (chyme is what the undigested mixture of food and enzymes is called). The large intestines are divided intonine sections. They start at the iliocecal valve to the first section of the large intestine called the cecum, acsending colon, hepatic flexure (the hepatic flexure is where the colo takes a turn under the liver), transverse colon, the splenic flexure (the splenic flexure is where the colon turns downward under the spleen), decsending colon, sigmoid colon, rectum, and the anus. The large intestines are responsible for reabsorbing water and some electrolytes. It is in the large intestine that the chyme is called feces.
