← Human Body & HealthWhich outcome occurs when bile discharge reduces dramatically?
A)Fats are incompletely emulsified✓
B)Protein digestion becomes inefficient
C)Carbohydrates rapidly metabolize to ethanol
D)Sodium absorption increases extensively
💡 Explanation
Reduced bile decreases lipid emulsification because it impairs the detergent-like action; therefore, fat absorption worsens, rather than issues arising from protein or carbohydrate related enzymes or increasing total electrolyte absorption. Bile acids facilitate the breakdown of fat globules.
