A solution is indeed a homogeneous mixture, meaning the composition is uniform throughout. Additionally, it is possible to have solid solutions, where both the solute and solvent are solids, such as alloys. Solutions do not readily separate into solute and solvent when left undisturbed; they remain mixed, which makes options A and B correct.
