Hydrophobic means the molecules, and some of yours, have a water phobia. They don’t like the water.
Hydrophillic means the opposite.
Amphipathic means it can go either way depending on the context. They are polar and non-polar
Call me a major nerd but this chart is very moving for me. These 20 amino acids, with all the similar chemicals; Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen, rearranged in different ways and put in different contexts make up ALL the diversity of life on this planet and how many others! It really begs the question; What is the source then of expression of our souls, music, art, dance, sexuality, and love? Can the answer be found in how these proteins fold? It would only be a partial answer but to start the New Science with actual ethics we really need to understand how proteins fold.
White Wind, Red Earth, Blue Night, Blue Hand, Yellow Star, and Yellow Seed are not going to wear their heart on their sleeve or run to the beach. They prefer the trees, soil and plants and they are known to not tell the truth about their feelings or even know how they feel in the first place. They have feelings but they are AWOL.
Red Serpent, White World-Bridger, White Dog, Yellow Human, Red Dragon, Blue Monkey, Red Skywalker, Blue Eagle, and Yellow Warrior will go for a dip and thrive near water. They prefer bodies of water to the earth and want to talk about their feelings.
White Wizard, Blue Storm, White Mirror, and Red Moon will be unpredictable. It could go either way. These folks have mood instabilities.
Most interesting is that Sulfur, looking at Methionine and Cysteine, was the first substance to begin life on this planet and the Red Dragon tribe was here first according to Mayan history as far as entities. They are Tribe #1, have attributes of blood memory, nurturing, being, birth, protective, primordial mother, memory, creative energy and supportive.
Sulfur Chemistry May Have Paved the Way for Evolution of Antioxidants

A SULFUR BATH doesn’t exactly sound comfy to we soft mammalian humans now but back then, the whole planet was sulfur. We had to begin that way and the reptiles evolution is still part of our bird brains. They even call it the reptilian brain and indeed, birds evolved from the dinosaurs.
Methionine is the other sulfur containing amino acid and is THE start codon in line sequencing. The tRNA cell holds the mRNA which finds the start codon; UAC in the anti-codon, starts to match things up and translates the codons into an mRNA strand. This is all mirrored almost exactly in the Tzolkin, 5 archetype themeplex. They even look the same.
