😳WHY❓❓❓

Why milk is white in colour 

Milk is a natural, whole food made up of water, protein, fat, carbohydrates in the form of lactose, vitamins including calcium, minerals including phosphorous and a range of other bioactive compounds.

Caseins are one of the main types of protein in milk which cluster together with calcium and phosphate to form tiny particles called micelles. When light hits these casein micelles it causes the light to refract and scatter resulting in milk appearing white.

 🤔 HOW IT WORKS ⁉ =======================
How it works ⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️

How does a mosquito sense the human body ⁉️⁉️

Female mosquitoes have nerve cells called cpA neurons that have a receptor to detect carbon dioxide. This enables them to sense the plumes of air we exhale. But mosquitoes are still attracted to human skin even in the absence of carbon dioxide.

Mosquitoes searching for a meal of blood use a variety of clues to track down humans, including our body heat and the carbon dioxide in our breath. Now, research shows that a certain olfactory receptor in their antennae also serves as a detector of humans, responding to smelly chemicals in our sweat.

It’s long been known that mosquitoes rely on multiple clues to target humans. First, a mosquito will sense exhaled carbon dioxide from a distance that can be more than 30 feet. “After the carbon dioxide,”, “then it begins to sense human odor.”

The mosquito follows this odor and, when it gets very close, it starts to detect body heat. Once mosquitoes land on you, “they actually can taste your skin with their legs and then they look for a place to bite,”
