Homophobic biochemistry [HAPP-L]



I just finished grading the first exam of the semester, and I have a keeper -- the first "malapoop" of Fall '03:

"Phospholipids are lipids that are made up of 20 carbon compounds. They have 2 homophobic tails & 1 homophilic tails, so they are called amphiphilic. The head can be dissolved in water but the tails can not. They help form the cell membrane, but they only allow certain things to mash through the membrane."
