Which enzyme is responsible for the breakdown of fats in duodenum?

lipase
trypsin

duodenum does't digest the fats
The duodenum is the first segment of the small intestine, which is largely responsible for the breakdown of food. It helps to digest all categories of food: carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. Fats break down with the help of the lipase enzyme, which is secreted from the pancreas.
