What is a lipid with a water attracting and water repelling part of its molecule?

Any phospholipid has a hydrophilic head and hydrophobic tail. These are the lipids that are most common in cell membranes, which require this amphipathic property to function. Other lipids, including many sphingolipids, are also amphipathic.

but if youre asking about if it is correct..
yes, it is correct.
and this type of lipid is called a phospholipid.
it is used in cell plasma membranes.

∙ 12y agophospholipids. they have a hydrophilic (nonpolar) head and a hydrophilic (polar) tail. They form clusters when in water.

Why does polarity happen?
a polar molecule is a molecule such as a lipid that has one part of it attracting something , such as water (hydrophillic) and the other repeling it (hydrophobic)
What is one molecule that won't dissolve in water?
A molecule that will not DISSOLVE in WATER is a LIPID
Which substances is a nonpolar molecule that is not soluble in water?
Lipid
What is a large molecule that doesn't dissolve in water?
One is Lipid.
What molecule produces the most energy?
its either A) carbohydrate B)water C)lipid or D)inorganic.

What type of organic molecule repels water?
The type of organic molecule that repels water is a lipid. It is an non-polar compound and is generally insoluble in water.
Which of the following is not an organic macro-molecule carbohydrate ice lipid nucleic acid?
ice is water molecules and is inorganic.
When dehydration synthesis takes place a molecule of lipid is given off?

Is the allergen in poison Ivy sap a water-soluble or lipid- soluble molecule. explain your reasoning?
Lipid-soluble because water spreads poison ivy
What molecule produces the most energy?
its either A) carbohydrate B)water C)lipid or D)inorganic.
Is water a lipid?
no, it is a nucleic acid. A nucleic acid is a component structure of DNA. This is totally unrelated to water. The answer is: water is a molecule of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. It is not a lipid.
Nonpolar molecule that is not soluble in water?
Lipid are nonpolar molecules that is not soluble in water.
