Current Question (ID: 14184)

Question:

To move into the intestinal mucosa, fatty acids and glycerol are first incorporated into:

Options:

1. Chyle
2. Micelles
3. Chylomicrons
4. Lipoproteins

Solution:

Micelles are small spherical clusters of lipids, including fatty acids and glycerol, that are formed in the small intestine. They are created when bile acids and phospholipids emulsify dietary fats and oils, breaking them down into smaller droplets that can be absorbed by the small intestine. The hydrophobic interior of the micelles provides a favorable environment for the transport of the hydrophobic lipids through the aqueous environment of the intestinal lumen. Chyle is a milky fluid that is formed in the small intestine during the digestion and absorption of fats. It contains emulsified fats, proteins, and lymphatic fluid and is eventually absorbed into the lymphatic system. Chylomicrons and lipoproteins are larger lipoprotein particles that are formed in the small intestine and liver, respectively, and transport lipids, including fatty acids and glycerol, throughout the body. They are not involved in the initial absorption of lipids into the intestinal mucosa.
