Question

​in comparison to a low-density lipoprotein, a high-density lipoprotein contains ____.
a. ​more triglyceride
b. ​more carbohydrate
c. ​less lipid
d. ​more cholesterol
e. ​less protein

Answer 1

Hey there,

​In comparison to a low-density lipoprotein, a high-density lipoprotein contains 
$\boxed{​less \ lipid}$ So. . .It would be the opposite of the high density of the lioprotein. When ever the lipoprotein is high, most likely is would contain a less lipid, not more lipid.

Answer 2

A high-density lipoprotein contains less lipid. That is option C.

In the body system, because the lipids are relatively insoluble, they are transported in body fluids as soluble protein complexes called lipoproteins.

There are different types of lipoprotein which include:

• Low-density lipoprotein (LDL): This is formed from the very low density lipoproteins and carry cholesterol to cells.

Its consists by percentage % mass some water soluble group of protein(20%), cholesterol(55%), triglyceride(5%) and phospholipid(20%).

• High-density lipoprotein (HDL): This is the most dense lipoprotein which is involved in the transport of cholesterol from the cells back to the liver.

Its consists by percentage % mass some water soluble group of protein(50%), cholesterol(20%), triglyceride(5%) and phospholipid(25%).

HDL contains less lipid because a high protein content (50%) as compared to LDL.
