Bile is different than digestive enzymes because bile is not an enzymes but it is a juice that is secreted by liver and then is stored in gallbladder, which is then send to the small intestine for making the medium basic . this medium allows other enzymes to be reactive in this medium.
What else can I help you with?
The activity of lipase is greater with the addition of bile salts?
Yes, because the bile salts emulsify the lipids increasing their contact with the lipase.
What specific macromolecule is bile used to break down during digestion?
Bile is used to break down lipase during digestion.
Where are lipids first digested?
by bile in the stomach then by lipase by bile in the stomach then by lipase
Is lipase released by the gallbladder?
The pancreas releases lipase to digest fats
Which enzymes aids in the digestion of fats -?
trypsin, bile, lipase
What are the lipid-digesting enzymes secreted from the pancreas?
amylase, pancreas , maltase, sucrase, lactase,bile hcl,
What enzyme digests triglycerides?
Lingual Lipase
Did the pancreatic extract hydrolyze fat in presence of bile?
The pancreatic extracts hydrolyze fat in presence of bile. The enzyme lipase in pancreas hydrolyzes fat when there are bile salts.
What is a non enzyme chemical that breaks down fat?
lipase and Bile produced from Gullbladder
Does bile breaks down fat?
No bile does not break down fat. Bile salts only aid in digestion of lipids(fats) by emulsifying them. Pancreatic lipase breaks down the lipids.
Is bile produced in the liver and assists lipase in breaking down fats by first emulsifying it or dispersing the fats into droplets?
Yes, Bile is produced from the liver.
What acts as an emulsifier in the intestinal tract?
Lecithin, bile acids and bile phospholipids act as an emulsifier in the intestinal tract. However, pancreatic lipase does not act as an emulsifier.
