A colloidal system consists of two separate phases: a dispersed phase (or internal phase) and a continuous phase (or dispersion medium). A colloidal system may be solid, liquid, or gaseous.
good Luck ~
In a colloidal system you'll always talking about a dispersed phase in an continuous medium. These are the two components asked for.
Components of a colloidal 'solution' may be a fluid (eg. water) and a not-dissolved, very fine and not-aggregated solid particles (milk protein) that seem to stay stable (not settling down or floating up) in the liquid. The liquid is misty, tyndallising and not clear like a 'true' solution (sugar in water).
The same can be found in a gas (air) with liquid (water) called mist (not: rain) or with gas (air) with solid (cigarette smoke, micro-fine dust)
Foam, emulsion, gel, (solid or liquid aero-)sol are also some examples of the eight classes of Colloids.

A colloid is made up of tiny particles of one substance (dispersed phase) in another phase (dispersion medium). The dispersed phase particles are so small that they are virtually unaffected by gravity and remain in suspension indefinitely. Both phases of a colloid may be solid, liquid, or gas, except it is a gaseous mixture and not a colloid when one gas is dispersed in another gas.
Colloidal systems simply contain a dispersed phase and a dispersion medium. The dispersed phase particles are unaffected by gravity and remain in suspension.
The most common general names are the "dispersed phase" and the "continuous phase".
mixture and union
dispersing phase and dispersed phase
Colloids are very small particles of a substance suspended in a mixture making them homogeneous.
Answer:D I had the same question but I figured it out. It is C. Colloids.
u all are idiots :) and u cannot answer this :D ....... the answer to this question is that colloids have children which cannot be separated from them :)
A colloid is an extremely tiny particle that never settles out of suspension.
no. not really
After my opinion they are not colloids.
Colloids are stuck between heterogeneous and homogeneous mixture. So you can't say that it is a heterogeneous or homogeneous. It is both.
Milk, butter, gelatin, and jelly are some examples of colloids. Aerosols can be categorised under colloids too.

the biological is biology scientist of the condensation of colloids....
These colloids are called emulsions.
The 3 types of colloidal system are: 1. Lyophilic colloids 2. Lyophobic colloids 3. Association colloids
some colloids cause pollution in the environment...some colloids release cfc's that contributes to the ozone layer depletion...

colloids are not visible due to their tiny particle size, (when the colloid is stable).
no
Frogs are not colloids, they are amphibians.
