The structure of phospholipid molecules is essential for understanding cell membranes. Each phospholipid consists of a unique arrangement that contributes to its function.

Phospholipid Structure

Phospholipids have:

One polar head: This part is hydrophilic (water-attracting).
Two non-polar tails: These are hydrophobic (water-repelling).

Correct Answer

Therefore, the correct choice is C. One polar head and two non-polar tails. This arrangement allows phospholipids to form a bilayer, which is crucial for the integrity and functionality of cell membranes.
