Bile salts act as an activator of which enzyme?
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is
B
Lipase.
Bile salts act as activators of lipase as they emulsify fat globules into smaller droplet structures called micelles thereby, increasing the surface area accessible to lipid hydrolyzing enzymes. Bile acids also help to solubilize lipid breakdown products.
