Given the background description of some cooking related query, summarize the question into a title

I'm wondering if it matters whether you start from acid alone (lemon, vinegar or citric) vs something like acid + rennet. So the whey left over from making paneer, vs the whey left over from making mozzarella. Can you use either to extract the ricotta?
Does method of coagulation matter when extracting ricotta from whey?
