Homogenisation Right answer is Bile Emulsification that causes breakdown of f at globules.
emulsification
It is called emulsification.
emulsification
Emulsification of fats takes place in the small intestine with the help of bile acids produced by the liver. Bile acids are amphipathic molecules that breakdown large fat globules into smaller droplets, increasing the surface area for digestion by enzymes.
bile is the emulsification agent that helps to digest fats.
In the stomach, very little fat is digested. Most of fat digestion occurs in the intestine, where bile and enzymes act to break down fats.
The process of breaking up large fat globules into smaller droplets is called emulsification. Emulsification can be achieved by mechanical means, such as stirring, shaking, or blending, or by using emulsifiers like lecithin that help stabilize the mixture. This process increases the surface area of the fat droplets, making them easier to mix with other ingredients and creating a smoother texture in the final product.
Emulsification of fats is necessary because a fat globule has large surface area for enzymes to act upon it. Emulsification reduces the surface area and then more enzymes can act upon it and thus can produce more energy.
Fats is digested in the duodenum by the bile salts. The process is called emulsification.
Bile salts break up fats into smaller fats
Emulsification by bile breaks up the fat into smaller particles. This process increases the surface area that can be acted upon by digestive enzymes like lipase.
