Which molecule is less soluble in water--a fat or a phospholipid? Why?
VladimirAG [237]
Fat is less soluble in water compared to phospholipids.
This is because, fat is made up of three molecules of fatty acids which are not polar in nature at all, thus they mixed very poorly with water.
Phospholipids on the other hand has its molecules divided into two distinct regions, the head and the tail region. The head region is hydrophillic and it is polar in nature, that is, it mixes well with water. The tail region is made up of the fatty components  and it is hydrophobic.
Because of this difference in structure, phospholipid will dissolve better in water.

<h3>What is Mike Velings talks about?</h3>

Industrial aquaculture has had a wide range of negative effects on the environment, including the overfishing of wild fish to feed carnivorous farmed fish and the escape of farmed fish from their containment, which endangers local wild fish populations.

Lastly, in the words of Mike Velings, We are approaching a worldwide food crisis, he said. At our current rate, we are already taking more fish from the ocean than it can naturally replace, despite the fact that almost 3 billion people rely on the ocean for their food. Mike Velings, an entrepreneur and conservationist, offers a solution in this fact-filled, eye-opening talk: the practice of farming fish. "We need to stop hunting the ocean and start farming it,"
