Answer 2

Answer:

D.) Muddy Water ✔️

Explanation:

Let's first understand what is heterogeneous and homogenous mixture respectively.

♦ Homogenous mixture:

When the constituents of a mixture have same composition throughout the mixture and we cannot distinguish between their particles, then the mixture is said to me homogenous.

• Milk is a homogeneous mixture, because it has same chemical composition throughout the mixture.

• Blood:- It is also a homogeneous mixture because we cannot distinguish between its particles with a naked eye.

• Air is also a homogeneous mixture because the we cannot differentiate between the components present in air.

♦ Heterogeneous mixture:

When the constituents of a mixture do not have same composition throughout the mixture and we can distinguish between their particles, then the mixture is said to me heterogeneous.

• Muddy water is a heterogeneous mixture because some suspended particles of mud can be seen in water, as a result we can easily distinguish between water and mud.
