Answer:

A Solution is a homogeneous mixture.

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution is a homogenous mixture because a solution is when two or more substances are mixed together thoroughly, in which you can't even see the separation of the particles in each substance. Heterogeneous mixtures are non-uniform and have visually distinguishable components, while homogeneous mixtures appear uniform throughout and you can't see the separated particles.

1. Example of Homozygous mixture: Salt and water

- When you mix salt and water, you can't see that they are separated.

2. Example of heterozygous mixture: Pizza

- You can see the different particles (toppings) on a pizza.

3. Solution: Salt and Water

- You can't see the separated salt and water molecules so it is homozygous.
