Describe the pathway followed by fats when taken in the form of food in the body
Answers
When we take in food into our mouth digestion begins in mouth itself. mouth have tjree partscalled teeth , tongue, salivary glands. Intestinal glands secretes intestinal juices. these juices helps in the brkdown of food into fatty acids .this was the pathway followed by fats & breakdown into fatty acids.
Once fat is broken down during digestion, some of it gets used right away for energy, and the rest is stored. When your body needs extra energy, such as when you exercise or don’t eat enough, it’ll break down the stored fat for energy.
Fat takes longer to digest than other foods, and the amount of time varies based on the type of fat. Dietary fats consist of:
•saturated fat
•trans fat
•monounsaturated fatty acids
•polyunsaturated fatty acids, including omega-3 fatty acids
