Question

Which of the following has the largest particle size in milk?

(a) lactose

(b) casein micelles

(c) fat globule

(d) minerals

I had been asked this question in an interview for internship.

Origin of the question is Storage in division Collection and Reception of Milk of Dairy Engineering

Answer 1

Correct answer is (c) fat globule

For explanation I would say: More than 95% of the total milk lipid is in the form of globules ranging in size from0.1 to 15 µm in diameter, with milk fat having a size ranging from 1 – 10 µm, depending on cow breed and season.
