Nonpolar fatty acid chains are nonpolar and prevent the cell from dissolving.
hydrophobic, meaning it repels water. This end of the fatty acid is made up of hydrocarbon chains that do not interact well with water molecules.

Nonpolar Fatty acid chains
Fatty acids are nonpolar.
The two ends of a fatty acid differ in structure and function. The carboxylic acid end, also known as the alpha end, is hydrophilic and interacts with water molecules. The hydrocarbon chain end, also known as the omega end, is hydrophobic and interacts with other nonpolar molecules.
