Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1,2,3
Rationale 1: Triglycerides are the most common classifications of lipids.
Rationale 2: Phospholipids are a class of lipids essential to building plasma membranes.
Rationale 3: Steroids are a diverse classification of lipids.
Rationale 4: Lecithins are not a classification of lipids. Lecithin is the best-known phospholipid.
Rationale 5: Bile acids are not a classification of lipids. Cholesterol is a building block of bile acids.
Global Rationale: Triglycerides are the most common classifications of lipids. Phospholipids are a class of lipids essential to building plasma membranes. Steriods are a diverse classification of lipids. Lecithins are not a classification of lipids. Lecithin is the best-known phospholipid. Bile acids are not a classification of lipids. Cholesterol is a building block of bile acids.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1
Rationale 1: Apoproteins are specific for cholesterol, triglycerides, and phospholipids, and they act as carrier molecules for transporting these lipids through the blood.
Rationale 2: Lipid molecules are not soluble in plasma and so require protein binding for transport.
Rationale 3: Albumin is the most common plasma protein, but it is not specific as a carrier for cholesterol, triglycerides, and phospholipids.
Rationale 4: Lipoprotein molecules that combine lipids with a carrier protein contain different amounts of cholesterol, triglycerides, and phospholipids.
Global Rationale: Apoproteins are specific for cholesterol, triglycerides, and phospholipids, and they act as carrier molecules for transporting these lipids through the blood. Lipid molecules are not soluble in plasma and so require protein binding for transport. Albumin is the most common plasma protein, but it is not specific as a carrier for cholesterol, triglycerides, and phospholipids.

The human body's pharmacokinetics are quite varied. Our hair holds onto drugs longer than our urine, blood, or saliva. For example, alcohol can be detected in the hair for up to 90 days after it was consumed. The same is true for marijuana, cocaine, ecstasy, heroin, methamphetamine, and nicotine.

Most strokes are caused when blood clots move to a blood vessel in the brain and block blood flow to that area. Thrombolytic therapy can be used to dissolve the clot quickly. If given within 3 hours of the first stroke symptoms, this therapy can help limit stroke damage and disability.
