Step-by-step solution
Bile contains no digestive enzymes, yet it plays an important role in fat digestion. It intensifies the 'mixing contractions' of intestinal wall. The organic salts by bile reduce the surface tension of fats globules and suspend them in water of digestive juice. It is emulsification of fats.

The inorganic bile salts imp
