Question
question 23 of 25 which part of the cell membrane prevents the cell from dissolving in water? a. phosphate groups b. nucleus c. fatty acids d. cytosol
Brief Explanations
The cell - membrane has a phospholipid bilayer. The fatty - acid tails of phospholipids are hydrophobic, which prevents the cell from dissolving in water. Phosphate groups are hydrophilic, the nucleus is not part of the cell - membrane, and cytosol is the intracellular fluid, not a part of the cell - membrane that prevents water dissolution.
