A.
Goat
B.
Sheep
C.
Human
Answer
D.
Cow

Answer: Option C

Solution

Answer: Option C
Solution:
More water is found in the milk of humans.
Breast milk or mother's milk is milk produced by mammary glands located in the breast of a human female.
Breast milk is the primary source of nutrition for newborns, containing fat, protein, carbohydrates (lactose and human milk oligosaccharides) and variable minerals and vitamins.
The milk of mammals that nurse frequently (including human babies) is less rich, or more watery, than the milk of mammals whose young nurse less often. Human milk is noticeably thinner and sweeter than cow's milk.
