Atherosclerosis is characterized by the buildup of arterial plaque. When plaque first begins to form

Answer 1

The complete question is as follows;

Atherosclerosis is characterized by the buildup of arterial plaque. When plaque first begins to form, on which part of the blood vessel do the monocytes bind after taking in cholesterol-rich lipoproteins?

Answer: Endothelial lining

Explanation:

Atherosclerosis is a condition in which the fatty deposits develop in the blood vessels and which slows down or restricts the movement of blood in the blood vessels. This condition is also called as the hardening of the arteries. The condition develop due to build up of the fatty deposits like fatty acids, cellular wastes, calcium and cholesterol-rich lipoproteins. These deposits results in the development of the blood clots or plaques in the blood vessels which restricts the flow of blood.

The atherosclerosis or the formation of the plaque generally result in the inner lining of the blood vessel or the endothelial lining of the blood vessel.

Answer 2

Answer:when plague begins to form, the arteries then become narrow.

Explanation:

Atherosclerosis is as a result of excessive build up of plague in the arteries ( blood vessels that carries blood from the heart to other parts of the body).

These plague are a build up of calcium , fat , cholesterol in the arteries.

This in turn reduces blood flow to some body tissues. This pieces of plague can breakdown and cause blood clot leading to heart attack or stroke or heart failure.
