|
Amphipathic
|
Containing both polar and nonpolar domains
|
|
|
Micelle
|
An Aggregate of amphipathic molecules in water, with the nonpolar portions in the interior and the polar portions at the exterior surface, exposed to water
|
|
|
Hydrophobic Interactions
|
The association of nonpolar groups, or compounds, with each other in aqueous systems, driven by the tendency of the surrounding water molecules to seek theri most stable (disordered) state
