Given below are two statements
Statement I: Fatty acids and glycerols cannot be observed in the blood.
Statement II: Specialized lymphatic capillaries called lacteals carry chylomicrons into lymphatic vessels and ultimately into the blood.
In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
Answers (1)
Statement 1 is correct because Fatty acids and Glycerol are insoluble in water. Hence these cannot be absorbed directly into the blood. Hence these cannot be absorbed directly into the blood.
Statement 2 is correct because Fatty acid and Glycerol are first converted into micelles. These move from the intestinal lumen into mucosa These are then transformed into very small protein-coated fat globules called chylomicrons. These enter lacteals (lymphatic capillaries) because chylomicrons are bigger and cannot enter blood capillaries. Inside the lacteals, they break down and finally enter blood:
Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
