∙ 9y agoThe phospholipid head is hydrophilic hence is attracted to water molecules. When placed in water, the heads form hydrogen bonds with water molecules to form a complete sphere that shields the tails from water.

∙ 14y agoA phospholipid head is polar, which means that it has both a positive and a negative charge. (The phospholipid tails, however, are neutral.)

∙ 9y agoThe head of a phospholipid is made up of alcohol and a phosphate group. There is also a chain of fatty acids involved as well.

What can the head of a phospholipid be described as?
The head of a phospholipid is a phosphate group and is hydrophilic, which means it is attracted to water, in particular the intracellular and extracellular fluids.
What part of a phospholipid is non polar?
The head (or top) of a phospholipid is polar and the carbon chain tail is non-polar.
A molecule with a polar head and two non polar tails?
Lipids, man!Could be the phospholipid bilayer of a cell membrane to be more specific.phospholipidSoap and detergent molecules have a polar head and nonpolar tail to help dissolve an dwash off dirt and oil.
Is the polar head of a phospholipid made of molecules?
Phosphate molecules.
What is Phosphate heads?
also can be known as polar head since phosphate is polar found in phospholipid bilayer also can be known as polar head since phosphate is polar found in phospholipid bilayer Was this right? i would like to know...
The head of phospholipid can be described as?
Hydrophilic or water-loving. The head of a phospholipid is attracted to water.Hope this helps!
What general type of molecules is a phospholipid?
The head and tail is a phospholipid molecule
The head of a phospholipid water and is said to be?
The head of a phospholipid is a phosphate group and is hydrophilic, which means it is attracted to water, in particular the intracellular and extracellular fluids.
What is polar of a phospholipid?
The head.
What are the specialized parts of the phospholipid bilayer?
The Phospholipid Bilayer is made up of phospholipids. These phospholipids have a hydrophillic head, and a hydrophobic tail. They are structured so that the hydrophillic head interacts with water, and the hydrophobic tails stays away from water, but mixes with fat. This makes the phospholipids form the phospholipid bilayer. The Phospholipid Bilayer has intrinsic proteins and extrinsic proteins attached, which may have glycoproteins attached to them. Glycolipids may also be attached to the hydrophillic heads of the phospholipid. Cholestrol is also part of the phospholipid bilayer, which adds strengh to the structure.

The head of the phospholipid is?
The head of the phospholipid is polar,it is hydrophilic in nature and hence attracted towards water,which face outwards in plasma membrane of cell
What are the parts of a phospholipid?
Head and hydrophobic tail
What part of the phospholipid polar?
The head is polar
What is the characteristic the best describes the tail of a phospholipid molecule?
The tail of a phospholipid molecule is hydrophobic, while the head is hydrophilic.
