Question

most dietary fats will.______
multiple choice
be converted to short - chain fatty acids for absorption with other water - soluble nutrients
enter the lymphatic system
enter the colon and become \food\ for bacteria
be converted to bile in the lumen of the intestine

Explanation:

Dietary fats are large, non - water - soluble molecules. After digestion, they are packaged into chylomicrons and enter the lymphatic system rather than being absorbed like water - soluble nutrients. Short - chain fatty acids are a different product of carbohydrate fermentation in the colon. Fats do not become "food" for bacteria in the colon in the main process of fat digestion and absorption, and fats are not converted to bile in the intestine.

Answer:

B. enter the lymphatic system
