D Correct answer
Explanation

Milk appears white because it contains colloidal particles (casein proteins and fat globules) that scatter and reflect all wavelengths of visible light. This Tyndall effect causes milk to reflect incident light diffusely, making it appear white to our eyes. Option A is incorrect because milk primarily reflects, not absorbs, light.
