Correct answer: B. None of the above
- A. Transport cholesterol from liver to peripheral tissues
- B. None of the above
- C. Both of the above
- D. Esterification with PUFA
Explanation
HDL mainly carries cholesterol from peripheral tissues back to the liver in reverse cholesterol transport. It does not transport cholesterol from the liver to tissues, and its main function is not simply esterification with PUFA, so none of the listed descriptions is correct.
