Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Bile salts emulsify fats by breaking them down into smaller droplets, increasing their surface area for digestion by lipase enzymes. Pancreatic juice contains bicarbonate ions which help neutralize the acidic chyme from the stomach, creating a more optimal pH for enzymatic activity in the small intestine. Bile salts do not denature proteins, nor do pancreatic juices break down carbohydrates, proteins, and fats all at once.
