Question

bile juice does not contain any enzyme but bile salts are important for digestion and absorption of fat . State reason

Answer 1

Bile is a digestive juice secreted by the liver. Although it does not contain any digestive enzymes, it plays an important role in the digestion of fats. Bile juice has bile pigments such as bilirubin and biliverdin. These break down large fat globules into smaller globules so that the pancreatic enzymes can easily act on them. This process is known as emulsification of fats. Bile juice also makes the medium alkaline deu to presense of NaHCO3 and also activate lipase.

Answer 2

It is because it helps us in two ways:-
* It provides an alkaline medium for the pancreatic juices to act on the food.
*It also helps in digesting fats.
