Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Exercise has been shown to increase levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), also known as "good" cholesterol, which helps to remove excess cholesterol from the bloodstream and transport it to the liver for processing. This can help to lower the risk of heart disease and stroke. In contrast, exercise generally does not raise levels of triglycerides or low-density lipoprotein (LDL), which are both considered to be "bad" cholesterol that can increase the risk of heart disease. Therefore, the best choice is A, raising HDL levels.
