Solution

The correct option is C water dispersed in oil
Emulsions are liquid - liquid collidal systems (a suspension of small globules of one liquid in a second liquid with which the former will not mix). In cod liver oil, the dispersion medium is oil and dispersed phase is water. So correct answer is option C.
