Explanation:

• Muddy Water:
• It is a mixture because it contains water and mud particles.
• It is heterogeneous as the mud particles are not uniformly distributed throughout the water.
• Granite:
• It is a mixture as it is composed of different minerals like quartz, feldspar, and mica.
• It is heterogeneous since the minerals are not evenly mixed.
• Steel:
• It is a mixture (an alloy) of iron and carbon (and sometimes other elements).
• It is homogeneous as the composition is relatively uniform at a macroscopic level.

Answer:

• Muddy Water: Mixture, Heterogenous
• Granite: Mixture, Heterogenous
• Steel: Mixture, Homogenous
