Emulsification of fats occurs in small intestine and it:
1. Results in the formation of small fat droplets
2. Depends upon the polar structure of bile salts

1. Amino acids
2. Sodium
3. Glucose
4. Vitamin B-12
Enterokinase:
1. | stimulates bicarbonate secretion by the pancreas |
2. | stimulates secretion of gastrin by the stomach |
3. | converts trypsinogen into trypsin |
4. | converts pepsinogen into pepsin |
