<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Phytosterols

Cholesterol or LDL

Sterol and stanol esters, also go by the name<u> phytosterols</u> and help lower <u>blood cholesterol level or LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol)</u>.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <u>Phytosterols also known as plant sterol and stanol esters are naturally occuring compounds found in plant cell membranes. </u>
  • <em><u>When consumed, phytosterols, compete with cholesterol for absorption in the digestive system since they are structurally similar to cholesterol. This will result in the blocking of cholesterol absorption thus reducing the amount of cholesterol in blood.</u></em>
  • Phytosterols have been found to lower total cholesterol and LDL or bad cholesterol in the blood. They are so effective and it is recommended for people with high cholesterol to consume 2 grams of phytosterols per day.

Olenka [21]

Answer:

She could time how long it takes for each amount of salt dissolves in the waters. (as well as keep each amount of salt the same if she was not doing that already.)

Explanation:

This way, she could observe which water is best for dissolving solvents and which is most affective in the shortest amount of time. If she was not timing how long it takes for salt to dissolve in different temperatures of water, then the experiment may as well have been useless unless there is somehow a different objective.
