Why do phospholipids form a bilayer in water?

Biology
1 answer:
andrezito [222]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

C. The phosphate portions attract water, and the lipid portions repel water

Explanation:

The phosphate parts are polar, meaning they're partially charged, so they attract water molecules, which also have partial charges. The lipids are non-polar, so they don't attract water molecules, meaning they can't dissolve in water.

Example of attribution theory that applies to real life situation?
Triss [41]
Attribution theory refers to how the social perceiver uses information in trying to explain casual events in everyday life. This primarily discusses as to how the information gathered are combined with in order to create a casual judgment. According to Heide (1958), people are like naive psychologists who are trying to figure out how and why things happen. For example, if someone with a bad family background succeeds, people will say that he used his struggle as a motivation and if he fails people will say that he succumb to the challenges.
