(as the level of HDL(high-density lipoprotein) increases the risk for cardiovascular disease decreases)

2. Hunger makes itself known about _______ hours after eating.

answer C 4-6 hours

(hunger is influenced by a contracting empty stomach empty small intestine, appetite-stimulating hormone (ghrelin), and other chemical and nervous signals affecting the brain)

(Lipoproteins are composed of proteins (apolipoproteins), phospholipids, triglycerides and cholesterol.)
