Answer: Option C

Solution(By Examveda Team)

The average fat percentage in buffalo milk is about 7.3%.
Milk is an emulsion or colloid of butterfat globules within a water-based fluid that contains dissolved carbohydrates and protein aggregates with minerals. The fat globules contain some yellow-orange carotene, enough in some breeds to impart a golden or "creamy" hue to a glass of milk.
Buffalo milk is thicker than cow milk. Cow milk has 3 - 4% of fat, while buffalo milk has about 7 - 8%.
