Biology · Secondary 3 · Medium · Roles of the liver
Food in the small intestine contains large fat droplets. Bile is released into the small intestine. How does bile help lipase to digest fats more efficiently?
- It converts fats into amino acids that lipase can absorb.
- It emulsifies fats into smaller droplets, increasing surface area for lipase.
- It raises the temperature so that lipase works faster.
- It neutralises all enzymes so that lipase is not denatured.
