Hey there,
Q1 & Q2)
1) Heredity- Genes carry genetic information for cholesterol. So, it can be passed down from your parents.
2) Diet- Cholesterol depends on the food you eat. If you eat food with too much saturated fat, you get a high level of cholesterol.
3) Weight- If you are obese, you are more prone to get cholesterol. Thus, you need to lose weight
4) Exercise- Exercise regularly to maintain a perfect cholesterol level
5) Stress- If you are a student, take breaks in between study timings to keep you less stress or if you are an adult, go for walks and do something that you like the most to calm your brain down.

Q3) Cholesterol causes plague to grow in your hearts. This thick, hard plague will block the arteries and will cause heart attacks and strokes.

Q4) Pros- Helps maintain healthy cholesterol levels, lowers risks of heart attacks and strokes
Cons- Could create too many HDL leaving not enough cholesterol for the body to be healthy.

Hope this helps :))

Answer from: Quest

answer: tributaries flow into rivers.

wetland is a biome that develops when the water gets accumulated in a land exhibiting a huge depression. these form either seasonally or permanently. the water in the wetland comes from rivers, lakes, ocean, flood, rain or other sources. the wetlands includes mangroves, marshes and peatland.

tributaries flow into the rivers develops a wetland because such water will get deposited in the depression and will restrict the original flow of tributary water. hence, water with low drainage current combines with the river water.

Answer from: Quest

carbohydrates: (starches and sugars) composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

lipids: (fats, oils, and waxes) are made of carbon and hydrogen atoms.

nucleic acids: contain hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon, and phosphorus. they are polymers of nucleotides. a nucleotide has three parts, a 5-carbon sugar, a phosphate (-po⬇️4) group, and a nitrogenous base.

proteins: made up of nitrogen, carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. they are polymers of amino acids.
