What kind of mixture is a smoothie?

A smoothie is a heterogeneous mixture.

Here's why:

* Heterogeneous mixtures have components that are not evenly distributed throughout the mixture. You can often see the different parts of the mixture.

* Homogeneous mixtures have components that are evenly distributed, making them appear as a single substance.

In a smoothie, you can often see the different ingredients, like fruit chunks, seeds, or ice. These components are not evenly distributed throughout the smoothie, making it a heterogeneous mixture.

While a smoothie may appear smooth and uniform after blending, it's important to remember that the ingredients are still physically mixed, not chemically combined. If you were to let the smoothie settle, you would likely see the ingredients separate to some degree.
