Quizplus · Accepted Answer

VLDL (Very Low Density Lipoprotein) primarily transports triglycerides from the liver to other tissues. Chylomicrons transport dietary triglycerides from the intestine to the liver and other tissues, while LDL (Low Density Lipoprotein) primarily carries cholesterol from the liver to other tissues. HDL (High Density Lipoprotein) is known as the "good" cholesterol and helps to remove excess cholesterol from the bloodstream. VHDL is not a recognized lipoprotein.
