Homogenised milk is a homogeneous colloidal dispersion of the milk solids in the liquid milk. The colloidal particles are sized as per the requirements in high-speed colloidal mills. It is not a heterogeneous mixture.

Milk is a heterogeneous mixture, and it shows Tyndall effect. Milk comes out of the cow as a heterogeneous mixture. Milk processers remove some of the components, like cream, to make butter and other milk products. Then they homogenize the rest so that when you buy it from the store, it is homogeneous.
This one is ambiguous, but the milk you buy at the grocery store is HOMOGENIZED, and therefore, it will be a HOMOGENEOUS mixture. If, on the other hand, you were talking about raw milk that came directly from a cow (that is, it hasn't yet been processed in a factory), then it would be considered as a HETEROGENEOUS mixture.

Milk could be considered both a heterogeneous and homogeneous mixture, bit it depends on the type. Before milk is homogenized, it is considered a heterogeneous mixture. After homogenization, it is considered a homogenous mixture.
