The terms hydrophobic and polar refer to the overall distribution of charge in a molecule. If there are no local regions of high or low electron density in the molecule, it is called hydrophobic (Greek for "water-fearing"). This term arises because hydrophobic molecules do not dissolve in water.

ANSWER
Chemical structure of a phospholipid, showing the hydrophilic head andhydrophobic tails. ... Since water is a polar molecule, it readily forms electrostatic (charge-based) interactions with the phospholipid heads. The hydrophobic, or “water-fearing,” part of a phospholipid consists of its long, nonpolar fatty acid tails.
