Trans-fat is bad for health because it significantly
raises the levels of Low-Density Lipoproteins (LDL), often referred to as bad
cholesterol. This can lead to atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease.
Lipoproteins are molecules that function to transport hydrophobic molecules in
body fluids containing water. Choose all the correct options from the following:

Question

Answer

The presence
of low density lipoproteins (LDL) leads to the formation of good cholesterol
and does not lead to clogging of the blood vessels.

Answer

The lipid
molecule shown here is largely non-polar, so it's not soluble in the blood, and
needs the presence of carrier molecules like lipoproteins to be transported in
the blood.

Answer

The 
excessive consumption of trans fat leads to the formation of high density
lipoproteins (HDL), which leads to clogging of the blood vessels.

Answer

Lipoproteins
are molecules that are made up of combination of lipids and proteins.

Answer

The excessive
consumption of trans fat leads to the formation of low density lipoproteins,
leading to coronary heart disease.

Answer

The lipid
molecule shown here is polar, so it is readily soluble in the blood and can be
transported easily.
