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.

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 😉
