I think the answer is hydrophilic

Lamont Combs · Answer 2

I believe the correct answer would be hydrophilic. The polar end of the phospholipid plasma membrane is hydrophilic. It has a higher affinity of bonding with water since a water molecule is polar as well. This follows the rule "like dissolves like".
