Chapter 12, Problem 12.114QP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The usage of phospholipids has smallest test tubes has to be described.

Concept Introduction:

Phospholipids are important class of bio molecules and have vital roles in biological functions.  These molecules consist of polar and non-polar part – polar part is phosphate attached group and non-polar part is hydrocarbon group.  Phospholipid molecules tend to aggregate themselves in water such that the hydrophilic water connects with water molecules and the hydrophobic part point away from water molecules.
