ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Emulsification is the act of breaking down fat into smaller blood cells, making it easier for enzymes to function and digest meals. Bile juice aids in the digestion of fats into fatty acids and glycerol for easy absorption in the small intestine, a process known as emulsification.

Detailed explanation-2: -Emulsification: In the small intestine lipids are emulsified by bile salts. Bile salts (bile salts = conjugation of bile acids with taurine or glycine) are polar and water soluble and function as detergents whereby they emulsifies larger fats into smaller droplets.

Detailed explanation-3: -Bile helps with digestion. It breaks down fats into fatty acids, which can be taken into the body by the digestive tract. Bile contains: Mostly cholesterol.

Detailed explanation-4: -When bile enters the small intestine, it will mix with the fat globules and will cause them to break down into smaller units called emulsion droplets. This process is called emulsification. Emulsification greatly increases the surface area of the fat on which the lipase can actually act on.

Detailed explanation-5: -Bile contains bile salts, lecithin, and substances derived from cholesterol so it acts as an emulsifier.
