Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The probability that atherosclerosis will develop is related directly to the concentration of LDL C. Chylomicrons are intermediate-density lipoproteins. VLDLs are not as important in the development of atherosclerosis as low-density lipoproteins. HDLs do not contribute to the development of atherosclerosis.

Answer to Question 2

ANS:
25.71

70  (1.65)2 = 25.71
