Final answer:

A homogeneous sample has similar data throughout and a uniform composition and properties. It is a homogeneous mixture where the components are evenly distributed.

Step-by-step explanation:

A sample of objects, specimens, or data is said to be homogeneous if the data is similar to each other. In a homogeneous mixture, the composition and properties are uniform throughout. For example, a solution of sugar dissolved in water is a homogeneous mixture because any sample of the solution will have the same ratio of sugar-to-water.
