What else can I help you with?
Is glucose an amphipathic?
I don't think that glucose has both hydrophyllic and hydrophobic ends though it is soluble. Think phospholipid for an amphipathic molecule.
Is the molecule nonpolar and hydrophobic or hydrophilic?
The molecule is nonpolar and hydrophobic.
Is a phospholipid hydrophilic or hydrophobic?
A phospholipid has both hydrophilic (water-attracting) and hydrophobic (water-repelling) parts, making it amphipathic.
What's the difference between hydrophobic and hydrophilic substances?
Hydrophobic substances repel water, while hydrophilic substances attract water.
Is starch hydrophilic or hydrophobic?
Starch is hydrophilic, meaning it has an affinity for water and can readily dissolve in it. This property is due to the presence of multiple hydroxyl groups in the starch molecule, which allow it to form hydrogen bonds with water molecules.
Is glucose an amphipathic?
I don't think that glucose has both hydrophyllic and hydrophobic ends though it is soluble. Think phospholipid for an amphipathic molecule.
Is starch hydrophobic?
Starches can be both hydrophobic and hydrophilic, although most of them are hydrophilic.
Is vitamin A hydrophobic or hydrophilic?
hydrophobic
Are carbohydrates hydrophilic or hydrophobic and how do you test this?
Carbohydrates are hydrophilic, meaning they have an affinity for water. To test this, you can perform a simple solubility test: add the carbohydrate sample to water and observe if it dissolves. If it dissolves, it is hydrophilic; if it does not dissolve or forms a separate layer, it is likely hydrophobic.
Are fish scales hydrophilic or hydrophobic?
Hydrophilic
Why hydrophilic proteins when placed in hydrophobic solvent their is denaturation of the proteins?
Hydrophilic molecules are repulsed by surrounding hydrophobic solvent. Hydrophilic tends to connect with hydrophilic, and hydrophobic with hydrophobic. If the protein as a part which is hydrophobic, then it will twist itself to accommodate those new connections, and when they change their form, they denature.
Is soap hydrophobic or hydrophilic?
Soap is both hydrophobic and hydrophilic. It has a hydrophobic tail that repels water and a hydrophilic head that attracts water, allowing it to interact with both water and oils.
What is the opposite of hydrophobic?
Hydrophilic
Is cholesterol hydrophobic or hydrophobic?
Cholesterol has many hydrophobic side chains and a single hydrophilic side chain. Because it contains both hydrophilic and hydrophobic groups, it is amphipathic.yes cholesterol Hydrophobic , choestol not soluble in water
Is the molecule nonpolar and hydrophobic or hydrophilic?
The molecule is nonpolar and hydrophobic.
Is cysteine considered hydrophobic or hydrophilic?
Cysteine is considered hydrophobic.
Is a phospholipid hydrophilic or hydrophobic?
A phospholipid has both hydrophilic (water-attracting) and hydrophobic (water-repelling) parts, making it amphipathic.
