3) Arterial walls contain cells with LDL receptors.
4) VLDL transformation to LDL occurs in adipose tissue.
5) Cholesterol is required for the formation of red blood cell membranes.

Chylomicrons are formed in the gut from exogenous triacylglycerols and cholesterol. They are released into the lymph and thereby enter the blood. They are not formed in the liver.
