What are the specialized parts of the phospholipid bilayer?
The Phospholipid Bilayer is made up of phospholipids. These phospholipids have a hydrophillic head, and a hydrophobic tail. They are structured so that the hydrophillic head interacts with water, and the hydrophobic tails stays away from water, but mixes with fat. This makes the phospholipids form the phospholipid bilayer. The Phospholipid Bilayer has intrinsic proteins and extrinsic proteins attached, which may have glycoproteins attached to them. Glycolipids may also be attached to the hydrophillic heads of the phospholipid. Cholestrol is also part of the phospholipid bilayer, which adds strengh to the structure.
What is the sequence that represents the cross section of a bilayer?
The sequence of a bilayer consists of two layers of phospholipid molecules arranged with their hydrophobic tails facing each other and their hydrophilic heads facing outward towards the aqueous environment. This structure helps create a barrier that separates the inside and outside of the cell or organelle.
Is oxytocin hydophillic or hydrophobic?
Hydrophillic
What is the function of the Philips head screwdriver?

What form the cell membrane by lining up tails to tails in a double row?
I think you're thinking of lipids, the things with the hydrophobic tail and the hydrophillic head? I think that's it.
Where is hydrophillic portion found?
Hydrophillic means water loving matter. In dry seeds this matter is present which prompts the process of imbebition at the time of seed germination.
What is the function of stones in fish's head?
Well , do you think if the fish has no head it can be complete ? Of course not , the function of head in fish it to give protection.
What does the word hydrophillic mean?
having a strong affinity for water
Are fats hydrophillic?
No. Hydrophillic freely associates with water, readily entering into solution, and water loving. Fats, or lipids, are hydrophobic, which are incapable of freely associating water molecules, insoluble, and water-fearing.

What is the function of hairs in the skin?
Depends on each animal. On humans it seems they have no function except the head hair which has a protective function against heat and cold on the head.
In which layer of the epidermal cells is the waterproofed protein?
I'm not sure what your question is asking - if you mean what waterproofs cells in general, it's the phospholipid bilayer. In cells, the phospholipid bilayer has a hydrophobic (water hating) tail, pointed inwards, and a hydrophillic head (water loving) head on the outside.
