LDL - LOW DENSITY LIPOPROTEIN (BAD CHOLESTEROL)
HDL- HIGH DENSITY LIPOPROTEIN (GOOD CHOLESTEROL)
HIGH DENSITY LIPOPROTEIN - it is a good cholesterol which protects the body and benefits our heart. it transports the low density lipoproteins to the liver, where they broken down and eliminated from the body. it helps against narrowing blood vessels.
HDL should be present more than 60 milligrams per deciliter in our body.
LOW DENSITY LIPOPROTEIN - it is a bad cholesterol which damages heart and cardiovascular system. it makes arterial wall stiff and cause blood clotting which makes blood pressure high. it causes heart diseases.
LDL should be present less than 100 milligrams per deciliter in our body.

Why are LDL low density lipoproteins considered to be the "bad" cholesterol relative to the high density lipoprotein particles? A) HDL particles contain a different form of cholesterol B) Because the lower the density of the particle, the more cholesterol it contains. C) Because HDL receptors are not found on cells

6. Explain how VLDL is metabolized by lipases to intermediate-density lipoprotein (IDL) which may be cleared by the liver or converted to lowdensity lipoprotein (LDL), which functions to deliver cholesterol from the liver to extrahepatic tissues via the LDL (apoB100, E) receptor. 7. Explain how high-density lipoprotein (HDL) is synthesized, indicate the mechanisms by which it accepts cholesterol from extrahepatic tissues and returns it to the liver in reverse cholesterol transport. 8. Describe how the liver plays a central role...
