Bile, lipase, and pH:
Lipase only breaks down fats into fatty acids and
glycerol which turns the pH acidic but slowly.
However, when lipase is combined with bile, Bile
breaks down fats into smaller particles which
increases the surface area for lipase to act on.
Therefore the pH becomes acidic faster.
When writing about enzymes, include:
their specificity, complementary, and their shape.
