WITH CORRECT SOLUTIONS.
How are lipids carried - correct answer- on lipoproteins in the blood because they are insoluble in water
Proteins found on lipoproteins - correct answer- apolipoproteins
Density of lipoprotein with less lipid and greater protein - correct answer- more dense
Density of lipoprotein with more lipids and less protein - correct answer- less dense
Major bloodstream lipoproteins - correct answer- chylomicrons, vLDL, LDL, HDL
Chylomicrons - correct answer- least dense of the lipoproteins and are triglyceride-rich particles that are formed in the intestine

Function of Chylomicrons and where they can be found - correct answer- Transport dietary fat and can be found in the bloodstream at highest concentration soon after a meal
Least to most dense lipoprotein particles - correct answer- Chlyomicron, vLDL, LDL, HDL
lipoprotein that is the most atherogenic of all lipoproteins - correct answer- LDL
LDL carries - correct answer- 60-70% of the cholesterol in the blood
HDL carries - correct answer- 20-30% of the cholesterol in the blood
Equation for total LDL-C in bloodstream - correct answer- LDL=
TC-(HDL-C-(TG/5))

When does calculating LDL-C become inaccurate - correct answer- when TG exceeds 400mg/dL
Desirable total cholesterol level - correct answer- <200
Borderline high total cholesterol level - correct answer- 200-240
High total cholesterol level - correct answer- >240
Optimal TG level - correct answer- <150
Borderline high TG level - correct answer- 150-199
High TG level - correct answer- 200-499
Very high TG levels - correct answer- >500

Optimal in men HDL levels - correct answer- >40
Optimal in women HDL levels - correct answer- >50
Optimal LDL-C levels - correct answer- <100
Near optimal LDL-C levels - correct answer- 100-129
Borderline high LDL-C levels - correct answer- 130-159
High LDL-C levels - correct answer- 160-189
Very high LDL-C levels - correct answer- >190
Hypertriglycerdemia is associated with high levels of - correct answer- VLDL-C
