Explanation:

1. Avocados contain healthy monounsaturated fats that do not raise LDL cholesterol, unlike bacon (saturated fat), doughnuts/pastries (trans/saturated fats), and potato chips (saturated/trans fats).
2. Oxygen transport is done by hemoglobin, not cholesterol. Cholesterol builds cell membranes, synthesizes hormones, and is carried by lipoproteins (but does not transport itself).
3. The nutrition label shows per serving: Total Fat 11g, Saturated Fat 2g, Trans Fat 0g.
4. Servings per container = 4; total fat per serving = 11g. Total for whole container: 11g × 4 = 44g.
5. Calories from fat per serving are listed as 90 (from the label: "Calories from Fat 90").

Answer:

1. A. Avocados
2. D. Cholesterol is used to move oxygen through the body.
3. C. 11g, 2g, 0g
4. B. 44g
5. (Note: The options provided do not include 90, which is the label value. If assuming a typo, but based on label, the correct value is 90. However, if forced to choose from given options, there may be an error. But strictly following the label, the answer is 90.)
