Question 41

3 CONDITIONS THAT REDUCE PANCREATIC ENZYMES FOR LIPID digestion

Answer 41

Cystic fibrosis Pancreatitis Malignancy

Question 42

In the digestive system, cystic fibrosis can lead to problems with digesting lipids in the small intestine, the thick mucus can block the ducts in the pancreas, preventing these digestive enzymes from reaching the small intestine.

Answer 42

Cystic fibrosis

Question 43

characterized by inflammation of the pancreas that can interfere with its ability to produce digestive enzymes (lipase), leading to difficulties in digesting food properly, including lipids (fats).
