The answer would be: a. a mixture that is uniform throughout

A homogenous mixture would be hardly distinguishable since the solute spread evenly inside the solvent. A heterogeneous mixture is not spread evenly so it is easily distinguishable. A suspension has a big molecule solute that will slowly settle and make sediment at the base of the solution. A colloid mixture is suspended but it won't settle like suspension does.
