D: a heterogeneous mixture with components of varying sizes

Heterogeneous mixture is a combination of substances that doesn't have uniform composition and properties. Just by looking at the mixture you can differentiate the compounds because they are so different. U sing a sieve, allows the components with different sizes to separate, while one is retained, the others can pass the holes in the sieve.
