Homogenous
C
Heterogenous
D
Salty
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A solution is a mixture that is the same or uniform throughout. Think of the example of salt water. This is also called a “homogenous mixture.” A mixture that is not a solution is not uniform throughout. Think of the example of sand in water. This is also called a “heterogeneous mixture."

Detailed explanation-2: -An evenly distributed, uniform mixture is called a homogeneous mixture. In a homogeneous mixture, the materials that make up the substance blend, instead of separate from, each other. In addition, this type of mixture has the same composition throughout, so that one part is no different from another part.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are two types of mixtures: heterogeneous and homogeneous. Heterogeneous mixtures have visually distinguishable components, while homogeneous mixtures appear uniform throughout. The most common type of homogenous mixture is a solution, which can be a solid, liquid, or gas.
