What are low density lipoproteins?
Low density lipoproteins are the second smallest of the five major groups of lipoproteins. They enable the transport of fat molecules within the water around cells and within the bloodstream.
Why does Atherosclerosis occur in arteries and not in veins?
Atherosclerosis occurs when LDL (Low Density Lipoproteins) get oxidized. Since the plasma in the arteries contains plenty of oxygen to oxidize the LDL's it occurs mostly in arteries. In the veins, there is little oxygen to be found, so it is much more likely to happen in the arteries for that reason.
What is the comparative and superlative form of important?
More important is the comparative form, and most important is the superlative form.

Why is the ulna important?

Which organ forms lipoproteins?
The liver produces lipoproteins.
How many kinds of lipoproteins are there?
There are five major types of lipoproteins
Are lipoproteins produce by the small intestine?
yes, they can be..these lipoproteins are known as Chylomicrons.
What are Intermediate-density lipoproteins?
IDLs are short-lived lipoproteins containing about 30% cholesterol that are converted in the liver to low-density lipoproteins (LDLs)
The substances that serve as the major vehicles for fat transport in the bloodstream are?
The substances that serve as the major vehicles for fat transport in the bloodstream are lipoproteins, specifically chylomicrons, very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL), low-density lipoproteins (LDL), and high-density lipoproteins (HDL). These lipoproteins carry fats, such as triglycerides and cholesterol, to various tissues in the body for energy production or storage.
What is the function of the lipoproteins?
Lipoproteins usually carry fat molecules from the intestine to the bloodstream. As lipoproteins are broken down, they release fats that the body needs for energy or to put in storage.
Which of the following plasma lipoproteins is the most soluble?
Lipoproteins are soluble in lipids; plasma is a suspension in blood.
What carries cholesterol from the blood to the liver to be degraded and exerted?
Lipoproteins
What are the largest lipoproteins?
The largest lipoproteins are chylomicrons, which are responsible for transporting dietary triglycerides from the intestines to tissues in the body.
What describes lipoproteins?
Lipoproteins are complexes of lipids and proteins that transport cholesterol and other fats in the blood. They are categorized based on their density, with high-density lipoproteins (HDL) being considered beneficial for heart health, while low-density lipoproteins (LDL) are associated with increased risk of heart disease. Lipoproteins play a crucial role in maintaining lipid balance in the body.
What are low density lipoproteins?
Low density lipoproteins are the second smallest of the five major groups of lipoproteins. They enable the transport of fat molecules within the water around cells and within the bloodstream.
What form of fat is carried in the blood by lipoproteins?
Triglycerides are carried through the blood by lipoproteins according to my health class. It could also be cholesterol, which is also a fat and is carried by lipoproteins along with triglycerides.
