This question we need to tell which among the two options correctly describes the chemical digestion of lipids.
00:15
So, firstly we need to see what is a chemical digestion.
00:19
It is the process in which the enzymes they break down the food into smaller molecules that can be absorbed by the body very easily.
00:38
So, next we need to understand what lipids are.
00:41
Lipids they are basically the type of fat that are found in foods such as the oil, the butter and the meat.
00:58
Now, we need to see what are the options given.
01:04
The first option it says that in the stomach the fats are digested by the pepsin into the fatty acids and monounsaturated fats.
01:15
This statement could be partially right.
01:21
It's because the pepsin it is an enzyme which breaks down the proteins and not the fats according to the question.
01:38
So, however, some lipid digestion it can also occur in the stomach through the gastric lipase and not through the pepsin...
