Explanation:

Trans - fat is known to raise blood cholesterol levels and increase the risk of heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and also increases bad cholesterol. Cholesterol itself is not a nutrient that typically raises cholesterol levels in the body in the same way as trans - fat. Sodium is more related to blood pressure issues rather than directly raising cholesterol. Vitamin A has no such effect on cholesterol or heart - related risks. Sugar can contribute to health problems but trans - fat is more directly linked to cholesterol and heart disease risks among the given options.

Answer:

a. Trans fat
d. Trans Fat
