Question

molecules that have properties of both polar and nonpolar molecules are called a. hydrophobic b. hydrophilic c. amphipathic d. all of the choices are correct e. none of the choices are correct

Answer 1

The Answer is C amphipathic.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer here is C. A molecule that has both polar and nonpolar regions is called amphipathic. The polar end of the molecule is water-loving, or hydrophilic, and the nonpolar end of the molecule will be water-repelling, or hydrophobic. This means the molecules are able to connect both to other water molecules, and to molecules of other substances.
