Q

what makes the head more hydrophilic

A

phospholipids

17
Q

The cream on top of milk separates because

A

it has different polarity

18
Q

true or false: most milk in stores is pasteurized

19
Q

what to the percentages (of milk) signify

A

the amount of fat remaining

20
Q

homogenous

21
Q

heterogenous

A

not well mixed

22
Q

How is milk pasteurized

A

quickly heated to kill microbes

23
Q

true or false: pasteurization doesnt affect milk’s nutrition

24
Q

Fat/protein + gas bubble=

25
what is a colloid
a chain of molecules that form around a gas bubble
26
hot gas introduced to milk leads to
softer foams
27
cold gas introduced to milk leads to
tougher texture
28
Overwhipping heavy cream leads to
butter
29
Fermentation aids the
solidification process
30
what does ice cream rely on in order to form
colloid formation and freezing point depression
31
true or false: less salt=colder
false
32
What is found in high concentration in the aqueous phase of raw milk?
lactose, casein proteins, whey proteins, calcium
33
cream separation in milk is a homogenous system
false
34
what is associated with binding calcium in milk
casein proteins
