Match the lipoprotein ( 1 to 4 ) with its description (a to d). (15.6) 1. chylomicrons 2. VLDL 3. LDL 4. HDL a. damages cardiovascular system, also called "bad" cholesterol b. delivers TGs to body cells to be used as fuel c. carries triacylglycerols synthesized in the liver to the adipose tissues for storage d. picks up cholesterol from body cells and takes it back to the liver
Lipids
Cell Membranes
Select the name of the lipoprotein that correctly matches each function. Major carrier of cholesterol in blood (liver → peripheral tissues) Produced in the liver from triacylglycerols. Deliver synthesized lipids to tissues for storage. Highest protein content (tissues → liver) 98-99% lipid, mostly triacylglycerol, droplets of fat, assembled in intestine HDL VLDL LDL Chylomicrons
