High-density lipoproteins (HDL) refer to macromolecular complexes made up of lipids and that have the function of transporting dietary lipids to the liver.
<h3>What are lipoproteins?</h3>
They are macromolecules whose function is to package insoluble lipids in the aqueous medium of plasma and transport them from the intestine and liver to peripheral tissues and, from these, return cholesterol to the liver for elimination from the body.
<h3>Characteristics of High Density Lipoproteins (HDL)</h3>
- They are synthesized and secreted by the liver and to a lesser extent by the intestine.
- They transport cholesterol from peripheral tissues to the liver, this is known as “Reverse Cholesterol Transport”.
Therefore, we can conclude that lipoproteins are macromolecules whose function is to transport lipid molecules from one organ to another in the aqueous medium of plasma.

Here's one I found interesting.
Can we ever beat photosynthesis?
-It’s one of the holy grails of energy; coming up with a material for capturing the energy of the sun which can beat the efficiency of photosynthesis. This is an incredibly challenging problem, to say the least. And it’s one that could have an outsize impact on our very way of life, leading to energy from water splitting and biomass from energy conversion.
The two organisms that are most closely related according to Linnaean taxonomy are <em>Felis catus</em> and <em>Panthera pardalis</em>, because they belong to the same family
<h3>What is taxonomic classification?</h3>
Linnaean system of classification consists of a hierarchy of groupings called taxon. Each taxon is arranged in a hierarchical order.
The hierarchical arrangement of the taxon are as follows:
- Kingdom
- Phylum/Division
- Class
- Order
- Family
- Genus
- Species
These taxa are arranged from the most inclusive to the most exclusive i.e. members of the same species are the most closely related in that order.
This suggests that <em>Felis catus</em> and <em>Panthera pardalis</em> are the most closely related because they belong to the same family.
