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. Lipoprotein molecules that combine lipids with a carrier protein contain different amounts of cholesterol, triglycerides, and phospholipids.

Did you know?

Vital signs (blood pressure, temperature, pulse rate, respiration rate) should be taken before any drug administration. Patients should be informed not to use tobacco or caffeine at least 30 minutes before their appointment.

Did you know?

Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness. As of yet, there is no cure. Everyone is at risk, and there may be no warning signs. It is six to eight times more common in African Americans than in whites. The best and most effective way to detect glaucoma is to receive a dilated eye examination.

Did you know?

About 60% of newborn infants in the United States are jaundiced; that is, they look yellow. Kernicterus is a form of brain damage caused by excessive jaundice. When babies begin to be affected by excessive jaundice and begin to have brain damage, they become excessively lethargic.

Did you know?

Signs and symptoms of a drug overdose include losing consciousness, fever or sweating, breathing problems, abnormal pulse, and changes in skin color.

Did you know?

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
