What is the main function of bile juice?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: To break fat into small droplets
The main digestive role of bile is emulsification of fats. Bile salts divide large fat globules into many tiny droplets, increasing the available surface area so that lipase can digest the fat more efficiently. Bile does not directly convert starch into glucose, bind oxygen in blood, or filter urine. Therefore option A accurately describes its principal function.
