Solution

The correct option is A Muddy water
Milk, jelly and fog are all examples of colloids. In them, the suspended particles do not settle down when left undisturbed. On the other hand, muddy water is a suspension. It's particles (mud) settle down at the bottom if the mixture is left undisturbed for a long time.
