Answer:

The correct answer is 4. The presence of a polar or charged head group attached to the phosphate.

Explanation:

Lipids have a hydrophilic head and a hydrophobic tail. This allows them to form structures where the tails are hidden on the inside, and the heads interact with the water molecules. This conformation is the best energetically and allows the lipids to interact with aqueous environments.
