About this listen

 This excerpt from a YouTube video transcript explains the digestion and absorption of dietary fats. It details how the enzyme pancreatic lipase breaks down triacylglycerols into smaller molecules in the small intestine. These molecules are then absorbed by the intestinal lining and reassembled back into triacylglycerols. Finally, these reformed triacylglycerols are packaged into chylomicrons, which are released into the bloodstream to deliver fatty acids to body tissues.
