Nutrients are absorbed by the microvilli across the intestinal epithelium and then accross the wall of the capillaries or lacteals. Fats are taken by the _____
|
lacteal
|
|
lacteals distributed the fat via the ____
|
lymphatic system to veins near the heart (circulatory system)
|
|
[heart] Atria
|
receive blood returning to heart
|

|
|
