Solution

The correct option is B A and B only
A solution is a homogeneous mixture in which the particles are smaller than 1 nm in diameter. As a result, they cannot be seen with naked eyes. Since the solute particles are completely dissolved in a solvent, undissolved components are not present in it. Therefore, particles do not settle down when left undisturbed even for a long time.
