Answer:

The Phospholipid head which contains a phosphate group

Explanation:

The cell membrane contains phospholipids.

The Phospholipid bilayer is made up of phospholipids

Phospholipids consist of a hydrophobic tail (non-polar and is repelled by water)

It also consists of a polar head which is polar because it has a phosphate group which is negatively charged and therefore is hydrophilic (water-loving)
