UW Question ID : 1018

it states that fat is digested in duodenum and absorbed in jejunum along with fat soluble vitamins.

I thought that fat was absorbed along with bile and fat soluble vitamins in ileum.

nope, the only relevance of ileum in fat soluble vitamin/fat absorption is allowing bileabsorption which makes fat absorption possible elsewhere.
 
UW Question ID 1617

In the explanation look at creatine and inulin curves. creatinine curve is lower than that of inulin. I suppose it should be above inulin's, as a little creatinine is even secreted.
FA does give a right curve.

agree, creatine line should be above inulin line...
we will let UWORLD get away with that one though as it doesnt change the answer 😉
