    The correct option is: possess both hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties.

    Explanation:

    Amphipathic, also known as the amphiphilic or amphiphile, are the chemical molecules or compounds that have both the hydrophilic or lipophobic (polar) and hydrophobic or lipophilic (non-polar) properties.

    An amphipathic molecule has a lipophilic group or end and a hydrophilic group or end.

    Some of the examples of amphipathic molecules are phospholipids, glycolipids, cholesterol, bile acids, saponins, soaps and detergents.
