Which of the following statements is/are true regarding the function of bile juice in human digestive system ?

(A) It makes the partly digested food coming from stomach alkaline.
(B) It helps in digestion of fats.

  • A.Both (A) and (B) are false
  • B.(A) is true and (B) is false
  • C.(A) is false and (B) is true
  • D.Both (A) and (B) are true

Answer: D

Both (A) and (B) are true.

Bile, made by the liver and stored in the gall bladder, makes the acidic food coming from the stomach alkaline so that pancreatic enzymes can act. It also breaks fat into small droplets (emulsification), which helps in the digestion of fats.

Bile has no digestive enzymes, but both of its roles described here are correct, so options rejecting either statement are wrong.
