The milk of which one of these animals has more fat content?
A. Cow
B. Buffalo
C. Sheep
D. Goat

Hint: Milk is a nutrient-rich fluid produced by the mammary glands of the mammals. It acts as the primary source of nutrition for the newly born mammals. The fat content of the milk is calculated by the proportion of the butterfat by weight. The fat composition in the milk varies with the species, breed, feed and the stage of lactation.

Complete step by step answer:
The buffalo milk is very high in fat and comprise 7-8 percent of fat.
Approximately 244 ml of buffalo milk comprises around 17 grams of fat. Buffalo milk is very heavy on the stomach and requires a significantly higher amount of time for digesting.
 Therefore, it helps in keeping you full for a longer period of time. Thus it is useful for reducing the food intake throughout the day and helps in losing weight.
Buffalo milk has high nutritional value and is rich in protein and fat. It has a very creamy texture and can be used to produce fat-based dairy products including butter, yogurt, cheese, and ice cream.
sheep milk has higher lactose content
The milk from cows has 3-4 percent of fat
Goat’s milk has the highest amount of protein and cholesterol.
Buffalo milk has the highest amount of fat in comparison to the milk from cow, sheep and goat. So the correct answer is option (B).

Note: Buffalo milk is the second highest consumed milk after the cow’s milk. Apart from fat, buffalo milk is also rich in SNF, calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus content.
Worldwide, India and Pakistan combined, produces about 80% of the buffalo milk.
The fat content of the milk can be genetically altered in the cow and also by selective breeding. The fat content can be increased or reduced in milk using these techniques.
