Final answer:

An example of dispersion is a suspension, such as mud, while emulsion, lotion, ointment, and suppository are not examples of dispersion.

Step-by-step explanation:

An example of dispersion is a suspension, such as mud, which is a heterogeneous mixture of suspended particles that appears cloudy and in which the particles can settle.

An emulsion, lotion, ointment, and suppository are not examples of dispersion.

An emulsion is a colloid, like milk, where the larger particles remain dispersed and do not settle.

A lotion and ointment are both solutions, clear and homogeneous mixtures. A suppository is a solid dosage form and not a type of dispersion.
