Fatty acids are part of phospholipids that are in the cell membrane. Each phospholipid consists of a polar molecule, phosphate group, glicerol backbone and two fatty acids. The polar molecule is hidrophilic and the two acids are hidrophobic. read more
Fatty acids are part of phospholipids that are in the cell membrane. Each phospholipid consists of a polar molecule, phosphate group, glicerol backbone and two fatty acids. The polar molecule is hidrophilic and the two acids are hidrophobic. Therefore, when placed in water the phospholipids will arrange in bilayer. read more
