Which of the following statements about the lipoproteins given
in the introduction are true?
Check all that apply.
A- Lipoproteins are complexes of lipids and proteins.
B- Lipoproteins can be distinguished by their densities and
composition.
C- Lipoprotein densities increase in the following order:
chylomicrons, VLDLs, LDLs, HDLs, IDLs.
D- Chylomicrons are the only lipoproteins that exclusively carry
dietary lipids.
E- HDL has a high
lipid-to-protein ratio. HDL is termed "bad" cholesterol because it
can deposit excess cholesterol in the arteries.
F- Lipoprotein densities vary because lipoproteins have different
lipid-to-protein ratios.

Lipoproteins in Lipid Transport Lipids either enter the body through diet, are released from storage in adipose tissue, or are manufactured in the liver. All lipids are transported in the blood. Because blood is aqueous and lipids are nonpolar, lipids must form associations with other molecules to form lipoproteins that can be transported in blood. Chylomicrons, very-low-density lipoproteins (VLDLs), intermediate-density lipoproteins (IDLs), low-density lipoproteins (LDLs), and high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) are five types of lipoproteins. Chylomicrons exclusively carry lipids from the...

QUESTION 3 There are four classes of lipoproteins which of the following correctly pairs the class of lipoprotein with its function in the body A. None of these answers are correct OB. High-density lipoproteins (HDLs) - transport dietary lipids to adipose tissue OC. Low-density lipoproteins (LDLS). carry about 75% of the total cholesterol in blood and delivers it to cells OD. Very low-density lipoproteins (VLDLS). remove excess cholesterol from body cells and the blood and transports it to the liver...

VLDLs is denser than fat, and determines the overall density of a lipoprotein. bile are the only type of lipoprotein that gets circulated in the lymph. HDLs lymphatic system are the least dense of the lipoproteins produced by the liver. liver 4. VLDLs are transformed into after transport of triglycerides and cholesterol to muscle and fat cells. protein are the densest type of lipoprotein that circulates in the bloodstream; they serve to remove cholesterol chylomicrons from cells and deliver it...

match the following fat carriers with their descriptions: made in intestinal cells after fats have been absorbed, released to lacteals LDL made by the liver, carry cholesterol to cells of the body, considered "bad" if there are too many HDL made by the liver, carry cholesterol back to the liver, considered "good" all lipoproteins (chylomicrons, HDLs, LDLs, VLDLs) composed...
