Lipids Often Move Within the Body in Complexes Known as Lipoproteins;

Multiple Choice

Lipids often move within the body in complexes known as lipoproteins; what advantage does this strategy provide?

A) Lipids alone have high solubility in body fluids and would be difficult to transport.
B) With a protein component as an identifier, cells needing lipids can use membrane receptors and acquire only as much lipid as they need at any given moment.
C) Rather than simply diffusing into adjacent cell membranes as free lipids would do, surplus lipoproteins can be routed to the kidneys for disposal or modification.
D) Lipids associated with lipoproteins are more likely to be able to pass freely through the cell membrane.
