Answer» Correct Answer - D
It is not lipases but the bile which are responsible for the emulsification of fats. Lipases can digest fat in significant amounts only when large fat droplets are broken into tiny droplets to form a fina emulsion. Emulsification of fats by bile salts thus increases the lipase action on fats.
