Emulsification of fats Takes place in liver.

Liver secretes bile juice .

Bile is a yellow liquid made in the liver which is normally stored in gall bladder.

Bile is alkaline in nature and contains salts which helps to emulsify the fats.

Emulsification is the process of breaking down the fat into smaller globules making it easy for the enzymes to act and digest the food .

Emulsification of fats helps in digestion of fats into fatty acids and glycerol which an be easily absorbed by small intestine.

HEY!!

✴Emulsification is the process of breaking down of the large fat globules into smaller globules and make them water soluble.

✴Emulsification of fats takes place in the gut with the help of the bile juice produced in liver.

✴It is necessary as it is difficult for the enzymes (lipases) to act on large fat globules. 

✴Emulsion of fats increases the efficiency of enzyme action to break down fats into fatty acids and glycerol which are easily absorbed through small intestines.
