Answer 1

To answer this question we need to remember the structure of phospholipids in the head where the head has a phosphate group and glycerol and is hydrophilic, meanwhile, the tail contains fatty acids one saturated the other unsaturated and is hydrophobic. Therefore taking this into account we can say that the correct option is the letter C.
