Atherosclerosis

Explanation:

Correct order of the sequence of events that leads to atherosclerosis is:

c, d, b, a

Development of atherosclerosis is caused by a high concentration of LDL‐cholesterol in the blood, and lowering the level of LDL‐cholesterol reverses atherosclerosis thus preventing cardiovascular disease

Cholesterol is the key component of arterial plaques which gave rise to the cholesterol hypothesis for the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis

Population studies have shown that elevated levels of both LDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein B (apoB) 100, which is the main structural protein of LDL, are directly associated with risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular events

Which eukaryotic organelles is primarily responsible for cellular digestion
Sergeu [11.5K]
Cellular Respiration occurs in 4 major stages: Glycolysis, NADH degeneration, Citric acid (or Kreb's) cycle and Electron Transport Chain. Glycolysis occurs in the cytosol or cytoplasm of the cell. If oxygen is present, then the next three stages would occur, otherwise lactic acid or alcohol fermentation would occur. NADH degenration and Citric acid cycle occur in the matrix of the mitochondria while Electron Transport Chain occurs in the intermembranal space of the mitochondria. Most of cell respiration occurs in the mitochondria though. Hope this helped!
I must say this is a very complete answer but if i might add,of every part of a cell involved in cellular respiration,the only organelle is the mitochondria meaning that is the answer.
