The small intestine secretes various triglyceride- rich lipoproteins, but the liver secretes only:: (A) Chylomicrons, (B) VLDLs, (C) LDLs, (D) HDLs
Answer is B. Ans. B. VLDLsAlthough both chylomicrons and VLDLs are triglyceride-rich lipoproteins, the liver, unlike the small intestine, produces only VLDLs. LDLs and HDLs are not triglyceride-rich lipoproteins. Chylomicron remnants are generated in the circulation by the metabolism of chylomicrons.
