Why are cholesterol and phospholipids amphipathic but fats are not?
A) Cholesterol and phospholipids have hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions, while fats are only hydrophobic.
B) Cholesterol and phospholipids have a higher molecular weight than fats, causing them to have dual characteristics.
C) Fats contain a higher percentage of saturated fatty acids, making them less likely to interact with water.
D) Cholesterol and phospholipids have specific functional groups that enable them to interact with both water and lipid molecules.
