- Place the steps regarding fat digestion and absorption in the correct order. The abbreviation TAG is used for triacylglycerol (triglyceride). Triacylglycerols enter stomach Triacylglycerols absorbed into cells Answer Bank The gallbladder secretes bile into the small intestine. Undigested fats enter the small intestine.
