Break down food,Grow,Repair body tissue, Perform many other body functions.
2. uses of fatty acids
Fatty acids have many important functions in the body, including energy storage. If glucose (a type of sugar) isn't available for energy, the body uses fatty acids to fuel the cells instead.
3. uses of glycerol
Glycerol is taken by mouth for weight loss, improving exercise performance, helping the body replace water lost during diarrhea and vomiting, and reducing pressure inside the eye in people with glaucoma. Athletes also use glycerol to keep from becoming dehydrated.
process:-
Proteins are broken down into amino acids during the process of digestion and finally all fats are converted into fatty acid and glycerol.
Answer:
Griffin (2009) explains that the glycerol and fatty acid will pack together to form a chylomicron, whose role will be to transport the triglycerides to the liver. The liver will send the fats to the muscle cell for energy or the adipose fat cell for storage (p. 1).
