Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Most digested lipids are transported to the mucosal lining of the small intestine in spherical compounds called micelles. Micelles are formed by the combination of bile salts and products of lipid digestion (such as fatty acids, monoglycerides, and cholesterol). The soluble micelles can easily pass through the water layer surrounding the intestinal villi and be absorbed into the enterocytes.
