Cholesterol (especially LDL*) tend to get into macrophages which migrate into blood vessels. Macrophages with cholesterol cannot get out of the vessels and stay there which causes a lipid mass in arteries. That causes atherosclerosis.

disa [49]

Answer:

100mL

Explanation:

Given the importance of water and our inability to store it in our bodies, we need to drink at least 2.5 liters of water daily. Ingestion should be daily, since its loss occurs all the time, which can cause serious imbalances.

One of the most noticeable forms of water loss is through urine. This substance, which is produced by the kidneys, contains metabolism products and substances that are in excess in the body. The elimination of urine is essential for the chemical composition of the internal environment to remain in equilibrium. In addition to urine, the body may lose water through the skin, lungs and etc.

Another form of water loss is through feces. The amount of water lost by faeces is insignificant compared to other forms of water loss. It is estimated that through feces the human being can lose around 100mL of water.
