Anatomy & Physiology

The enterohepatic circulation reabsorbs bile salts in the distal portion of the small intestine (ileum). All of the following statements about the enterohepatic circulation are true except one

Select the statement below that is not true of the enterohepatic circulation? A) Reabsorbing bile salts in the ileum gives more time to emulsify lipid and aid in their absorption within a greater length of the small intestine. B) All of the components of bile are recycled by this circulation. C) Reabsorption of bile salts reduces the need to synthesize new bile salts. D) The reabsorption of bile salts allows them to be reused within new bile.
