Ans: C, F
A total cholesterol level over 200 mg/dL and LDL level above 130 mg/dL are considered high and would support the diagnosis of dyslipidemia. Total cholesterol levels between 170 to 199 mg/dL and LDL levels between 110 to 129 mg/dL are considered borderline. Total cholesterol levels less than 170 mg/dL and LDL levels less than 110 mg/dL are acceptable in children.
