The last sip of the juice tastes stronger than the first sips. The last sip of the juice tastes stronger than the first sips. The juice can be separated into water and other substances. The juice can be separated into water and other substances. All regions of the juice appear identical. All regions of the juice appear identical. Most of the juice is water.

Answer 1

The observation that best supports the claim that the juice is a heterogeneous mixture is: The last sip of the juice tastes stronger than the first sips.

This indicates that the composition of the juice is not uniform throughout, which is a characteristic of heterogeneous mixtures. In contrast, if all regions of the juice appeared identical, it would suggest that the mixture is homogeneous.
