Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) are easily absorbed directly into the bloodstream from the intestinal mucosa without being incorporated into a chylomicron, while long-chain triglycerides (LCTs) and cholesterol are incorporated into chylomicrons for transport through the lymphatic system before entering the bloodstream. Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is not directly absorbed from the intestinal mucosa.
