What happens to the fat we take in meals? When we eat fat, it is digested and absorbed in our gastrointestinal tract. Some fat is not absorbed and excreted. Fat is one of the three macronutrients of human food, along with carbohydrates and proteins. Fat is a very good source of energy and essential for cell formation and vitamin absorption. It is vital for good health. However, an excess of fat is hazardous for our health. Let us delve into the fate of fat in our body. Digestion of fat:  Lipids are large molecules, and unlike carbohydrates and proteins, they are not soluble in water and do not mix with the watery blood. So, they like to cluster together in large droplets in a liquid surrounding the gastrointestinal tract. The digestive process breaks those large droplets of fat into smaller droplets, and then enzymes digest lipid molecules using enzymes called lipase. In the mouth:  Chewing breaks food into smaller particles and mixes them with saliva. Lingual lipase be

P recursor cells 4. Importance Polymorphonuclear is a type of white blood cells. It is also called a neutrophil. When a neutrophil is formed in the bone marrow, it has a profoundly indented nucleus-single lobed nucleus which is typically U-shaped, and it is called a Stab cell or Schaf's cell . When it is released into the circulation, its nucleus is bilobed. As the cell matures, the number of lobes of the nucleus increases from one to five or six. A very old neutrophil is known as ' Senile neutrophil .' The development of lobes in the nucleus is very constant. Therefore, one can predict the age of a neutrophil. One can recognize young, mature, and old neutrophils. Arneth counted 100
