Lumen
Hollow space in artery where blood flows
Explain how cholesterol causes heart attacks
When cholesterol is traveling through the artery lumen, extra cholesterol goes into the lining of the artery wall. The build up of this can cause reduced blood flow (clogged arteries). When arteries to the heart gets clogged, restricting blood flow to the heart, a heart attack will occur.

Good cholesterol. Is good because it picks up extra cholesterol in the arteries and transports it back to the liver (garbage truck)
HDL
Bad cholesterol. It is bad cholesterol because it drops into the lining of the artery wall.
LDL
