Describe the intermolecular interaction of the surface carboxylate groups of a micelle and the surrounding water.

Hydrophilic portions are outside and hydrophobic regions are inside

Explanation:

A micelle is an assembly of amphiphilic molecules formed in a liquid solution, generally an aqueous solution. Micelles are formed due to the packing (aggregation-like) behavior in which single-tail lipids are organized in a bilayer. A typical micelle in aqueous solution forms a spheric assembly where carboxylate ions are organized in a mode that hydrophilic head regions enter in contact with the surrounding water, while hydrophobic (lipophilic) portions are disposed inside the micelle.

structure is maintained and sustained by:

-cytoskeleton: gives cells coherence

-cell wall: support

-cytoplasm: shape
