A '''homogeneous mixture''' is a [[mixture]] whose composition is consistent through out the entire volume of the mixture.<ref>Wile, Dr. Jay L. ''Exploring Creation With Chemistry''. Apologia Educational Ministries, Inc. 1998</ref> An example of a homogeneous mixture is lightly [[salt]]ed [[water]]; no matter where in the sample the concentration is measured it will always be the same. Milk is mechanically homogenized to prevent separation of the cream layer. Since Milk is a combination of fat protein and water the fat globules can be reduced in size by forcing them through a very fine filter and the proteins will adhere to the surface preventing the globules from forming one solid mass.<ref>http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-homogenized-milk.htm</ref>
