Answer 1

Answer:

villi of small intestine, showing bloodvessels and lymphatic vessels. a lacteal is a lymphatic capillary that absorbs dietary fats in the villi of the small intestine. triglycerides are emulsified by bile and hydrolyzed by the enzyme lipase, resulting in a mixture of fatty acids, di- and monoglycerides.

Answer 2

Answer:

c) lipids

Explanation:

Each villus has a network of capillaries and fine lymphatic vessels called lacteals close to its surface. The epithelial cells of the villi transport nutrients from the lumen of the intestine into these capillaries ( amino acids and carbohydrates) and lacteals (lipids).
