Question
Chapter 24.7, Problem 24.6CIAP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The desirable goals for fasting levels of total cholesterol, HDL, and LDL values should be determined and the differences between the roles of LDL and HDL have to be found out.
Concept introduction:
- Cholesterol is a waxy fat carried through the bloodstream by lipoproteins.
- Lipoproteins are a biochemical assembly that contains both proteins and lipids.
- Lipoproteins can be classified on the basis of density (protein: lipid ratio)
- More protein – increased density
- More lipid – decreased density
- Total cholesterol number is the overall amount of cholesterol found in the blood.
- LDLs- This is a lipoprotein which transport cholesterol and it is considered as the bad cholesterol.
- HDL (high density lipoprotein) it has highest density due to high protein: lipid ratio.
