Amphipathic
(1) Pertains to a molecule containing both polar (water-soluble) and nonpolar (water-soluble) portions in its structure.
(2) Of, or relating to, a molecule having hydrophobic and hydrophilic regions.
Alcohol is hydrophobic. This is because one part of alcohol is non polar. The other part of alcohol is hydrophilic.
hydrophilic - loves water hydrophobic - repels water
Hydrophobic molecules repel water and are nonpolar, while hydrophilic molecules attract water and are polar. Hydrophilic coatings are commonly used to make surfaces wettable by water, allowing for better adhesion or compatibility with aqueous solutions.
This depends on type of fiber.
Phospholipids have a hydrophilic ("water-loving") head and a hydrophobic ("water-fearing") tail. This unique structure allows them to form the lipid bilayer of cell membranes, with the hydrophobic tails facing inward and the hydrophilic heads facing outward towards the watery environment inside and outside the cell.
Starches can be both hydrophobic and hydrophilic, although most of them are hydrophilic.
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.
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
Hydrophilic
Alcohol is hydrophobic. This is because one part of alcohol is non polar. The other part of alcohol is hydrophilic.
Hydrophobic substances avoid or move away contact with water. Hydrophilic objects move toward water.
the hydrophilic easier than hydrophobic substances
hydrophilic - loves water hydrophobic - repels water
Hydrophyllic heads and hydrophobic tails.
Its neither hydrophilic nor hydrophobic it is very toxic when it reacts with water
Yes, it is correct.
Hydrophilic is having an affinity for water; readily absorbing or dissolving in water.( love water) Hydrophobic is repelling, tending not to combine with, or incapable of dissolving in water.(hate water)
