glycerol + two fatty acids +phosphate group
two layers of phospholipids called the lipid bilayer
Head and hydrophobic tail
The non-polar part (the hydrophobic tail of the phospholipid)
There are two parts to the phospholipid molecule. One is a hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain, which points away from water. The other is a hydrophilic phosphate ionic group, often represented as the "head" of the molecule, which points towards water.

No, you do not have that quite correct. A Phospholipid molecule has one end that is hydrophilic (is attracted to water) while the other end is hydrophobic (is repelled water but is attracted to fats).
The tail of a phospholipid molecule is hydrophobic, while the head is hydrophilic.
