Answer to Question 1

Answer: A

Answer to Question 2

Answer: High-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol is referred to as the good cholesterol because increased blood values protect the patient from heart disease. Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol is referred to as the bad cholesterol because high values are usually linked to heart disease.
