Explain the structure of DNA.
What is DNA is a double stranded helix with a deoxyribose sugar and phosphate backbone. The middle rings connecting the two strands are made of nucleotide base pairs.

When looking at a phospholipid, you see two main sections: tails and a head. Describe what makes up the tails and what are the three parts of the head.
What is the hydrophobic tail contains two fatty acid tails and the hydrophilic head contains these 3 parts: Glycerol, phosphate, and choline.
