Hydrophilic
A phospholipid is comprised of a phosphate hydrophilic head, which means that it is "water-loving," and a fatty acid hydrophobic tail, which is "water-hating." The head and the tail are joined together by a glycerol molecule.
The phosphate head is attracted to water because it is charged (i.e. negatively). Water is a polar molecule, which means that there is an uneven distribution of charges within its molecular structure with the oxygen side being "more negative" than the rest of the atom (which is "more positive" near the hydrogen). Thus, the negatively-charged nature of the phosphate head and the parts of the water molecule which are positively charged enable the two to form an "attraction" towards one another.
On the other hand, the hydrophobic tail is nonpolar, which means that it does not have a "more positive" or "more negative" side or part in its molecular structure. These differences in structure with water make the hydrophobic tail unattracted to water molecules and more attracted to other uncharged, nonpolar molecules (such as fats and oils).

Answer:
Of the many important reasons to worry about the thousands of fires raging in the world’s largest rainforest, oxygen supply is not one of them.
Explanation:
l think this the answer
<span>The Answer would be D: Mesquite Shrubs as these are plants that produce their own food (called autotrophs) Plants use solar energy, convert it to chemical energy and these can be taken up by other consumers like the Coyotes, Cactus finch and Beaded lizards. These plants are eaten by primary consumers that are in turn eaten by secondary and tertiary consumers. So from the given list, the Mesquite Shrubs would begin the flow of energy through a desert food web</span>
