Solution

The correct option is C

Dispersed phase: liquid, dispersed medium: solid


The components of a colloidal solution are the dispersed phase and the dispersion medium. The solute-like particles form the dispersed phase and the component in which dispersed phase is suspended is known as dispersed medium. Jelly, cheese and butter belong to Gel type of colloids with liquid as dispersed phase and solid as dispersion medium.
