Question

Why do you think deposition of bad cholesterol in the inner walls of arteries and veins will Cause heart to stop working?

Answer 1

Over time, a tough, fibrous cap or scar forms over the top of the plaque, so that the mixture of 'bad' cholesterol, fats (lipids), calcium and white blood cells is kept separate from the blood. The growth of the plaque can narrow the artery, which reduces the flow of blood through the artery.
