Homogeneous nature
Correct Answer:
A. Made of two or more substances
Explanation:
Both mixtures and compounds are defined by being composed of two or more different chemical substances or elements. While compounds are chemically bonded in fixed proportions and can only be separated by chemical means, mixtures are physical combinations that retain the individual properties of their components and can be separated through physical methods. The fundamental similarity between the two is that neither consists of a single, pure element in isolation.
