milk sours because of a chemical reaction that takes place between some of the chemicals that make up the milk. Why does a carton of milk left out on a countertop sour sooner than a carton of milk left in the refidgerator

A lower temperature slows down the reaction that causes souring, making the milk last longer in the refrigerator.

Explanation:

Milk is made up of different constituents which includes:

--> water,

--> fat,

--> proteins,

--> lactose (milk sugar) and minerals (salts).

Milk is also considered to be a heterogeneous mixture because of the presence of fat and water which are two immiscible liquid phases that are present.

Milk contains a sugar called lactose. It also contains harmless bacteria called lactobacillus, which uses lactose for energy and creates lactic acid as a by-product. It is the lactic acid which makes milk taste sour. Therefore when milk is kept at a LOWER temperature, these bacteria growths are limited but at a HIGHER temperature such as room temperature, the growth is increased. As they increase in growth, the bacteria makes use of the lactose for energy and creates lactic acid as a by-product as earlier mentioned, leading to the sour taste observed.

when atmosphere interacts with biosphere they focuses on on the sources and sinks of green house gases (ghgs) air pollutants, particular matters, water and energy between the earth's surface and the atmosphere. the biosphere affects the climate. the atmosphere and biosphere are in constant interaction with each other, and all living things rely on gases in the atmosphere for life. organisms such as animals take in oxygen gas form the atmosphere to use in every cell of their body for smooth functioning of daily routine exercises.

oh it is true if thats what you are asking
