<h3>What is
angina?</h3>
Chest pain or pressure, often known as angina or angina pectoris, is a sign of coronary heart disease and is typically brought on by insufficient blood flow to the heart muscle (myocardium).
A blockage or spasm of the arteries that feed blood to the heart muscle is typically the cause of angina. Anemia, abnormal cardiac rhythms, and heart failure are among additional factors. Atherosclerosis, a component of coronary artery disease, is the primary mechanism of coronary artery occlusion. The phrase means "a strangling feeling in the chest" and is derived from the Latin words angere ("to strangle") and pectus ("chest").
The degree of oxygen deprivation in the heart muscle and pain intensity are only weakly correlated.

Answer:
(B). inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase.
Explanation:
Lovastatin is a drug, which is used to reduce risk for cardiovascular diseases and to reduce level of cholesterol in blood.
It works by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase) enzyme, required for the formation of mevalonate from HMG-CoA.
Mevalonate is building block for the biosynthesis of cholesterol. Hence, lovastatin inhibits cholesterol production by inhibiting synthesis of mevalonate.
Thus, the correct answer is option (B).
It is widely recognised that a CMR equal to or greater than one death per 10,000 persons a day signifies an emergency situation requiring an immediate response.
