This discussion focuses on the properties of R groups found in amino acids, explaining their classification into polar and nonpolar categories. Nonpolar R groups consist mainly of carbon and hydrogen, contributing to hydrophobicity. In contrast, polar R groups exhibit hydrophilic properties, with further distinctions made between different polar groups based on their behaviors. The terms "B*tchy Queen" and "Not-so-B*tchy Queen" humorously categorize the polar R groups, highlighting their varying degrees of interaction with aqueous environments.

What properties do the “R” groups have? By the RED team: Tyler, Nikki, Megan
Nonpolar • Hydrophobic CARBON AND HYDROGEN CHUMPS!!
Polar • Hydrophilic B*tchy Queen
Polar • Hydrophilic Not so B*tchy Queen
Polar • Hydrophilic B*tchy Queen
