Vedclass · Answer

(A) Fatty acids and glycerol are insoluble in water and cannot be absorbed directly into the blood.They are first incorporated into small,spherical droplets called micelles in the intestinal lumen.These micelles move into the intestinal mucosa,where they are re-synthesized into very small protein-coated fat globules called chylomicrons.Chylomicrons are then transported into the lymph vessels (lacteals) in the villi.Finally,the lymph vessels release the absorbed substances into the bloodstream.
