Alguien me explica el significado de la doble naturaleza hidrofóbica e hidrofílica del fosfolípido.

The question is in another language, so the English translation of the question is as follows:

Someone explains to me the meaning of the dual hydrophobic and hydrophilic nature of the phospholipid.

Cell membrane are composed of a class of lipids are called Phospholipids. Phospholipds is an amphiphilic molecule made up of a hydrophilic "head" and two hydrophobic fatty acid "tails".

The two hydrophobic fatty acid "tails" are non-polar in nature and move away from water molecules. The hydrophilic "head" are polar in nature and attract towards water molecules.

This shows dual hydrophobic (two hydrophobic fatty acid "tails") and hydrophilic nature of the phospholipid.

answer: accepted answer: aquatic animals use the oxygen dissolved in water to carry out respiration. since the amount of dissolved oxygen in water is low as compared to the amount of oxygen in the air, therefore the rate of breathing in aquatic animals is much faster than it is in terrestrial animals.
