Hydrophobic plants are plants which have leaves which repel water. This causes the water tension to increase, so a sort of 'bubble' of water is formed on the leaf surface.
Lignin is a carbohydrate found in plant cell walls that is hydrophobic. While it is often associated with cellulose and hemicellulose, lignin provides structural support and water resistance, contributing to the rigidity and durability of plant tissues. Its hydrophobic nature helps protect plants from water loss and microbial degradation.
The meaning of hydrophobic is which rejects water, which cannot be wetted; solids are hydrophobic not liquids.
yes it is!!! it has an hydrophobic permeability barrier predominantly in phospholipids
No. Hydrophobic is a concept or symptom, not a substance as lipids are.
This depends on type of fiber.
They have roots.
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
hydrophobic
Hydrophobic describes molecules that are repelled by water. You can determine if a molecule is hydrophobic by looking at its structure - if it contains mostly nonpolar covalent bonds or hydrophobic functional groups (e.g. alkyl groups), it is likely to be hydrophobic. Additionally, hydrophobic molecules tend to aggregate together in water due to the hydrophobic effect.
Hydrophobic.
One can create hydrophobic water by adding a hydrophobic substance, such as a surfactant or a hydrophobic coating, to the water. This substance will repel water molecules, causing the water to exhibit hydrophobic properties.

The molecule is nonpolar and hydrophobic.
Hydrophobic substances are nonpolar.
Cysteine is considered hydrophobic.
