Heads

Question 1

Hydrophobic

Answer 1

Avoids water molecules

Tails

Question 3

Hydrocarbon

Answer 3

Organic molecule composed of only carbon and hydrogen atoms

Question 4

Organic molecules

Answer 4

Carbon based molecule

Question 5

Inorganic molecule

Answer 5

Non carbon based molecule

Question 6

carbon’s ability to bond

Answer 6

Carbon has only 4 electrons in its highest occupied energy level. Because this energy level can hold 8 electrons, carbon can form up to 4 bonds with other atoms.
