thank you for this, our class were never taught this topic properly so this video is super helpful 🙏🏽
Glad it was helpful!
i aint been listening in biology my teacher is so bad atleast I have you miss
im so cooked
we all are
dw bro its not just bro. Lebron dih to your cheeks whats 1+1 i don't know bro just slip it in💔(crying tears of joy)
Same lol
@@firenade5944 ayo lmao
Haha you sound a lot like someone I know 😂
Someone asked this question in your old video, however you might have missed answering it. So I thought it would be helpful if you could please answer it miss!
the diagram on 11:11 at the top of the page suggests that the products of lipid digestion (monoglycerides and fatty acid) are emulsified into micelles, which makes sense because it forms the micelles which can be absorbed into the epithelial cell. However at the same time i believe you said emulsification/bile salt occurs before the lipase action/ lipid digestion to provide a larger surface area and faster hydrolysis by the lipase enzyme
so does emulsification happen twice? first emulsification before chemical digestion so that triglycerides are covered in bile salt to become small droplets/vesicles of triglycerides (easier to become hydrolysed) and second emulsification after chemical digestion to make the products (monoglycerides and fatty acids and bile salt) into micelles too?
and so what stage are the micelles formed? are they formed twice? (lipid --> small micelle lipid droplets to be hydrolysed) and (monoglycerides and fatty acids
--> small micelle droplets with bile salt, monoglyceride and fatty acids)
hope my question makes sense, sorry if its so wordy!
Could really do with this being answered as well if anyone knows the answer!

Digestion:
1. Bile salts emulsify fats/lipids. Increase surface area for FASTER lipase action
2. Lipase hydrolyses fats/lipids into monoglycerides (or glycerol) and fatty acids
3. Hydrolysis of ester bonds (always mention type of bonds broken for any aqa Q)
Absorption: you don't acc have to say how the micelles form (emulsification) just say what they contain
1. Micelles contain bile salt, monoglycerides and fatty acids and they:
make MG and FA more soluble in water, carry MG and FA to lining of ileum (for absorption), maintain high concentration of MG/FA to cells lining the ileum
2. MG and fatty acids (are lipid soluble so) are absorbed into epithelial cells by diffusion
3. Triglycerides reformed (at SER if u wanted 2know) and are combined with proteins to form chylomicrons(@ Golgi)
4. Chylomicrons packaged into vesicles. Vesicles moved to cell membrane + fuses with it. Chylomicrons released via exocytosis.
5. Chylomicrons enter lacteals/lymphatic vessels and are eventually deposited in circulatory system (blood).
I got these steps from a model answer and you probably won't need all of them at once but I memorised these and answered a bunch of past paper qs ad they hit every marking point! Lmk if you understand it!
@@rubiksworld2170 this is so unbelievably helpful thank you so much!
@@rubiksworld2170thanks!! good luck tomorrow
@@rubiksworld2170 thank you so much for sharing this!
The true goat
🐐 thank you
Thanks so much my love one
are lacteals on the aqa specification?
Please could you do more videos on unit 7 inheritance !!
she has covered all of the spec for unit 7 (and the rest of the a level)
So what happens to glycerol, how is that absorbed?
the monoglyceride is glycerol and 1 fatty acid
could you please do an edexcel A biology as no other youtube channel covers it
Is this video different to the one in the Topic 3 playlist?
it's an updated version
