Digestion of lipids is accomplished by \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ in the duodenum via \_\_\_\_\_\_, by the use of the \_\_\_\_\_ properties of \_\_\_\_\_ \_\_\_\_\_\_. Emulsification peristalsis detergent bile salts
Bile salts are made where and are derivates of what?
made in liver stored in gallbladder
cholesterol
_____ and ______ degrade dietary lipids
bile salts
pancreatic enzymes
Cholecystokinin is released from where and does what in regards to enzyme & bile release and gastric motility
- released from small intestine
- increases bile and pancreatic enzyme release
- decreases gastric motility
secretion is released where and does what two things
small intestine
- increases bicarb release in the gut
- increases ph to optimize digestive enzymes
Why does Cholecystokinin slow down gastric motility?
in takes a long time to digest lipids
What are the 3 products of the digestion of lipids?
fatty acids
cholesterol
monoacylglycerol

Tags and cholesteryl esters are resynthesized in the ER and packaged as_____
chylomicrons
Where are micelle disk absorbed?
Where are micelle disk absorbed?
enterocytes or mucosal cells of intestine
What type of fat cells contain the most TAGS
chylomicrons
Chylomicrons are secreted into ____
lymph
lipid droplets surrounded by phospholipids and apolipoprotein are
chylomicrons
the apolipoprotein on a chylomicrons do what?
has a ligand that it attaches to, enzymes that help transport it and tell it where to go
-protect it also
