Q1: How might increasing the length of the lipid's hydrocarbon chains effect the structures the lipid can form.

Q2: How does the structure formed by lipids change if the concentration of water drops dramatically (for example if I dry out my sample). 


Q3: There are "double-headed" lipids, with two hydrophilic heads and a central hydrophobic, hydrocarbon central region.  How would such a lipid influence the types of structures lipids can form.
