Tails of the phospholipids in the phospholipid bilayer are hydrophobic,  consisting of fatty acid chains.  
<span>Phospholipids are composed of two fatty acids, glycerol and phosphate groups, forming an amphipathic molecule. Amphipathic molecules are built from hydrophilic (water-loving) and hydrophobic (not attracted to water) molecules. The phospholipids in the plasma membrane are arranged in two layers, called a phospholipid bilayer. Hydrophobic molecules (fatty acids) are on the interior of the membrane, whereas the water-loving heads (phosphate head) point outwards, toward either the cytoplasm or the fluid that surrounds the cell. The head group and fatty acids are attached <span>to </span>a glycerol unit.</span>

serious [3.7K]

animal cell works differently than plant cell

animal cell have million of cell as well plant..

animal cell have four key part ..plant cell have cell wall,chloroplasts, vacuoles

Explanation:

Plant cells have a cell wall, but animals cells do not. Cell walls provide support and give shape to plants.

Plant cells have chloroplasts, but animal cells do not. Chloroplasts enable plants to perform photosynthesis to make food.

Plant cells usually have one or more large vacuole(s), while animal cells have smaller vacuoles, if any are present. Large vacuoles help provide shape and allow the plant to store water and food for future use. The storage function plays a lesser role in animal cells, therefore the vacuoles are smaller.
