List the components of lechithins and cephalins.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Lechithins and cephalins are phospholipids composed of one polar head group (usually choline or ethanolamine) and two nonpolar hydrophobic tails (fatty acid chains). This makes option C the correct answer as it matches the composition of these phospholipids. Option A is incorrect as it has too many polar head groups, while option B has only one hydrophobic tail, and option D has too many hydrophobic tails.
