The meaning of hydrophobic is which rejects water, which cannot be wetted; solids are hydrophobic not liquids.
Yes, phosphatidylethanolamine is a phospholipid with a hydrophobic tail composed of fatty acids, making it hydrophobic in nature.
No. Hydrophobic is a concept or symptom, not a substance as lipids are.
This depends on type of fiber.
Oil is hydrophobic because its chemical formula doesn't allow it to dissolve in water. In other words, it's "water hating".
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
No, propane is not soluble in hexane because they have different chemical properties. Propane is a gas at room temperature, while hexane is a liquid.
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.

All Lipids are hydrophobic: that's the one property they have in common. This group of molecules includes fats and oils, waxes, phospholipids, steroids and cholesterol.
Propane is a compound.
