Answer:
Carotene and Riboflavin are the pigments present in the milk.
Explanation:
Carotenoids are pigments found in milk that contribute to the nutritional and sensory qualities of dairy products. As a result, carotenoids have a role in the color of dairy products.
β-Carotene is the most important fat-soluble pigment, present in cow's milk fat. It also functions as an antioxidant and a vitamin A precursor.
Because of the presence of Riboflavin, often known as Vitamin B2, cow's milk has a yellowish color.
