Answer to Question 1
A
Low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) transport cholesterol to body cells. Diets high in saturated fats increase LDL circulation in the bloodstream and may result in fatty deposits on vessel walls, causing cardiovascular disease. As a result, LDL is often known as the bad cholesterol. High-density lipoproteins (HDLs) remove cholesterol from the bloodstream, returning it to the liver, where it is used to produce bile; thus, a high HDL is considered protective against cardiovascular disease. It is often known as the good cholesterol. Vitamin K is involved in blood clotting. B-complex vitamins' primary function is cellular metabolism. Linolenic acid (omega-3) helps to protect against heart disease but does not indicate cardiovascular disease.
Answer to Question 2
B
Serum albumin is a blood protein and marker for nutritional status. The value should be between 3.5 and 5.0 g/dL. This situation is consistent with undernutrition due to low nutritional intake. As there is no indication that the woman has been vomiting, the potassium level should be within normal limits (3.4 to 4.8 mEq/L). However, if she had been vomiting over a period of days or longer, you would anticipate her to have low potassium, sodium, and other electrolyte levels. Serum glucose is normal (70 to 100 mg/dL) in this scenario. The serum creatinine is within normal limits for women (0.5 to 1.0 mg/dL).
