The steps in the digestion and absorption of fatty acids and glycerol in the intestine are as follows :
(C) Fatty acids and glycerol are incorporated into small droplets called micelles. These micelles are formed in the lumen of the small intestine.
(B) Micelles move into intestinal mucosa. They break down, releasing the fatty acids and glycerol, which then diffuse into the cells of the intestinal mucosa.
(A) Within these cells, the fatty acids and glycerol are reassembled into triglycerides. These triglycerides are then packaged with proteins and other substances into tiny, protein-coated fat globules called chylomicrons.
(E) The chylomicrons are extruded from the cells into the lymphatic system - specifically into tiny lymph vessels in the intestinal wall called lacteals.
(D) These lacteals ultimately transport the chylomicrons, and therefore the digested fat, into the bloodstream. The absorbed substances are then circulated to cells throughout the body.
