In the plasma membrane, the phospholipid heads Group of answer choices are hydrophilic and face inward, shielded from water. are hydrophobic and face outward toward the aqueous solution on both sides of the membrane. are hydrophobic and face inward, shielded from water. are hydrophilic and face outward toward the aqueous solution on both sides of the membrane.

are hydrophilic and face outward toward the aqueous solution on both sides of the membrane

Explanation:

The plasma membrane is structurally made up of a phospholipid bilayer, which is amphipathic in natire. This means that the phospholipid layer of the plasma membrane consists of phosphate head that is water loving or hydrophilic in nature and a lipid tail that is water fearing or hydrophobic in nature.

Since the phosphate head is HYDROPHILIC, they face outward toward the aqueous (water) solution on both sides of the membrane. This allows the phosphate head to attract water molecules.
