Reconstituted milk is the product resulting from the recombining of milk fat and nonfat dry milk or dry milk with water in proportions to yield the constituent percentages occurring in normal milk. For this purpose various forms of milk fat such as butter, anhydrous milk fat, fresh or frozen cream and nonfat dry milk, dry milk, or concentrated milk may be used. The product is practically always homogenized. 2, record 5, English, - reconstituted%20milk

"heterogeneous" :(Latin, "different kinds"). Any mixture or solution comprised of two or more substances, whether or not they are uniformly dispersed. Common examples are such diverse materials as air(a mixture of 1/5th oxygen and 4/5ths nitrogen), milk, marble, paint, gasoline, blood, mayonnaise. In all such cases the mixtures can be separated mechanically into their components. "Homogenized" milk is as heterogeneous as regular milk, and the term is, strictly speaking, a misnomer. 1, record 6, English, - heterogeneous
