During digestion fat is changed into?
During digestion, fat is changed into fatty acids and glycerol. This process is carried out by enzymes called lipases, which break down the large fat molecules into smaller components that can be absorbed by the body. The fatty acids are then absorbed into the bloodstream and transported to cells where they can be used for energy or stored as fat. Glycerol is also absorbed into the bloodstream and can be used for energy or converted into glucose.
