Question

what is the significance of emulsification of fats

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

☛Emulsification of fats takes place in liver. Liver secretes bile juice. Bile is alkaline in nature and contains salt which helps to emulsify the fats. Emulsification is the process of breaking down the fats into smaller globules making it easy for the enzymes to digest food. Emulsification of fats helps in digestion of fats into fatty acids and glycerol which can be easily absorbed by the small intestine.
