Answer 1

When the dispersed particles themselves are large molecules, the colloidal dispersions are termed as macromolecular colloids.

Explanation:

Macromolecular colloids consist of very large molecules with high molecular masses, such as starch and proteins, dispersed in a medium. These colloids are characterized by the presence of large molecular-sized particles as the dispersed phase.
