Vitamin E is carried to the liver and other tissues by lipoproteins

Vitamin E is hydrophobic. It can be absorbed just like every other dietary lipid. Vitamin E is absorbed into intestinal epithelial cells after the solubilization of bile acid, it is incorporated into chylomicrons (they are lipoproteins particles that are made of up phospholipids, cholesterol, triglycerides and proteins), and move into the blood through the lymph system.

Vitamin E is separated from chlomicrons during circulation and much is reabsorbed by the liver and repackaged into a low density lipoprotein which is then released into the blood.  

Vitamin E is then transported in blood bound to different classes of lipoproteins and it is absorbed by the tissue and spread throughout the body.

The sources of Vitamin E are so many. It can be found in vegetable oil, including wheat germ, sunflower, safflower oil and foods such as margarine. It is found in green vegetables (broccoli, spinach).  

Vitamin E can also be found in nut and seed (hazelnut, sun flower seeds), sea food (abalone, salmon),  

Vitamin E performs different functions in the body, and these include:

KEYWORDS:

answer: - few nutrients

high pressure

low temperatures

explanation: 1. few nutrients:   open-ocean zone is located way far from the land, which is the main source of the essential nutrients.2. high pressure: pressure increases by 1 atmosphere for every 10 meters increase in depth.3. ample sunlight: a large fraction of the sunlight is reflected back to the atmosphere from the sea surface. 4. varying salinity: below the thermocline, the water is isolated from the atmosphere so the salinity remains stable over the year.5. low temperatures:   the temperature of open-ocean zone ranges from a low of -2°c to an average of 17°c
