The lipid part of the cell phospholipid bilayer is hydrophobic and is responsible for repelling water. The hydrophobic ends face inward towards each other while the hydrophilic ends face outwards, which are saturated with water.
The endoplasmic reticulum is the site of phospholipid fatty acids and steroid synthesis in a cell. It also serves as a temporary storage area for newly synthesized molecules before they are transported to their final destination in the cell.
Nonpolar fatty acid chains.Non fatty acid chains
The cell breaks open, because the cell membrane is made of a phospholipid bilayer
Fatty acids , Glycerol , phosphoric acid and nitrogenous base are components of phospholipid.
Lipids. Fats that you take in from your food is used to build membranes. Membranes can be represented by models such as The Fluid Mosaic Model, which displays the phospholipid bilayr, and other tissues on the membrane.The fatty acids in the tail of a phospholipid molecule are non-polar and hydrophobic.Polyunsaturated fatty acids, Saturated fatty acids, Monounsaturated fatty acidsLauric Acid, Myristic Acid, Palmitic Acid, Stearic Acid, Oleic Acid, Linoleic Acid, Linolenic Acid , Arachidonic Acid

The bend in the fatty acid tail of a phospholipid molecule is due to the presence of double bonds in the carbon chain. These unsaturated fatty acids cause a kink or bend in the tail, affecting the fluidity and packing of phospholipid molecules in the cell membrane.

The unsaturated fatty acids in the phospholipid bilayer are the specific components of the cell membrane that are vulnerable to damage by free radicals. Free radicals can cause lipid peroxidation of these fatty acids, leading to membrane dysfunction and cell damage.
