Answer 2

Firstly when the fat is injected in body in form of food it reaches to stomach where bile juice is being released by liver in stomach.It breaks the large fat molecules into small fat molecules and increase the efficiency of enzyme action .The small fat molecules reaches to small intestine where enzyme named lipase is released by pancrease which breaks the small fat molecules and convert it into fatty acid which further being gets absorbed in small intestine.
