Solution

The correct option is B
suspensions

Medicines that have the instructions 'shake the bottle well before use' are most likely to be suspensions. The components of the medicine may settle down after some time and so, a 'shaking' is required to mix them again properly. Whereas in case of solutions and colloids, the particles do not settle down at the bottom.
