Which organs help in the chemical and physical change of fat?
The liver, pancreas, and small intestine are involved in the chemical and physical changes of fat in the body. The liver produces bile, which helps break down fat globules into smaller droplets.

What are the physical changes of the small intestine?
Physical changes in the small intestine include increased surface area due to the presence of villi and microvilli, which aid in nutrient absorption. Additionally, the small intestine undergoes peristalsis, the rhythmic contractions that move food along the digestive tract. The small intestine also secretes mucus and digestive enzymes to facilitate the breakdown of food.
