Heterogenous mixture-A mixture that you can see all the parts that it is made up of. An example is soup.
Homogenous mixture- A mixture that is all mixed together and you cannot see what it is made of. An example is a milkshake.
Suspension- A suspension mixture is when the bigger particles are mixed in with the smaller particles and the bigger particles will either float or settle at the bottom.
We did an experiment where we took a glass of pop and mixed in raisins. The raisins kept on floating up to the top and then coming down to the bottom. It was because the carbon dioxide was sticking to the raisins which would lift the raisin up and then when the carbon dioxide was released the raisins would sink. This is an example of Heterogenous suspension mixture.

That was interesting. I now know that if I drink a smoothie I am drinking a homogeneous mixture.
