Definitions:

- Mixture: A combination of two or more substances that are not chemically bonded. The components can be seen and separated easily (e.g., sand and pebbles).
- Solution: A homogeneous mixture where one substance (solute) dissolves into another (solvent). The particles are evenly distributed and cannot be easily separated by physical means (e.g., salt water).

1. Two or more substances combined together. One substance dissolves into the other. You cannot separate them easily.

✔ Answer: ___ Mixture
✘ ___ Solution

> This describes a solution, because one substance dissolves into another, forming a uniform mixture that is hard to separate.
> ✔ Correct answer: Solution

---

2. Two or more substances combined together. You can see the different parts and separate them easily.
