A.
6.6
B.
7.6
C.
6.8
Answer
D.
7.0

Answer: Option C

Solution

Answer: Option C
Solution:
The pH value of milk is 6.8.
The pH of milk ranges from 6.7 to 6.9. Milk from other bovines and non-bovine mammals varies in composition, but has a similar pH.
The reduced pH from lactic acid accumulation denatures proteins and causes the milk to undergo a variety of different transformations in appearance and texture, ranging from an aggregate to smooth consistency.
