What makes dish soap break up the fat in milk?

What part of the digestive system breaks up the fat?
The gall bladder breaks up fats
What breaks up large globs of fat?
bile
What will make fat dissolve?
Fat dissolves when it breaks down into smaller molecules, typically through the process of hydrolysis. This can be initiated by enzymes in the body or through chemical processes such as emulsification with detergents. Ultimately, the smaller fat molecules can be metabolized and used for energy by the body.
What is a fat molecule is made up of?
Fat molecules are made up of glycerol linked to fatty acids.
Why is it necessary to break up the fat into droplets?
Fats are made up of lipid molecules. Lipase is the enzyme that breaks up the lipid molecules.
What breaks down oil and fat molocules?
Oil and fat molecules are broken down by enzymes called lipases, which break the molecules into fatty acids and glycerol. Additionally, bacteria and fungi in the environment can also help break down oil and fat molecules through a process called biodegradation.
What happens to carbon dioxide molecules in the body of plants?
The process of photosynthesis breaks up CO2 molecules.
What is a large fat molecule made up of?
Fat molecules are made up of glycerol linked to fatty acids.
A substance made by the liver that breaks up fat particles is called?
Its Bile
When amylase breaks down starch what does it release?
amylase breaks starch down and releases maltose from which maltase breaks it up into two glucose molecules
