Module 2 : Final Exam Flashcards
Chylomycron transports _________ to the ________
Fat
Lymphatic system
Chylomycron is rich in
Triglycerides
Steps of Fat metabolism
- Chlylo drops off fatty acids and comes back to liver
2 Excess from liver become VLDL
3.VLDL transports its contents to destination - IDL comes back to liver or excess LDL is transported to blood
LDL is rich in _______
Cholestrol
HDL reverses _________ transport and this process is called __________
Cholestrol
Intentiersification
Chylomicron is made up of
TG
Cholestrol
Transports protein from Lymphatic - Blood
VLDL is made from fat in ________
Liver
Excess Carb and protein form VLDL becomes _______
IDL - LDL
LDL
Bad cholestrol
Delivers cholestrol to body tissues but if there is excess, it does not return to Liver
HDL
Reverse Cholestrol Transport
How do u measure Total Blood Cholestrol
LDL + HDL + VLDL
HDL < 1.03mM
CHD increased
LDL > 3.36mM
CHD increased
