Both alleles of one trait are either dominant or recessive. Not one dominant and one recessive. For example, the homogeneous hair of a cat would have both alleles of that trait be the same, say, BB or bb. NOT Bb.

The above definition applies in the field of genetics. More generally, the word means "Of the same or similar nature or kind".

Is tea homogenous?

First of all, what is homogeneous? Wikipedia has a good definition for it, "A substance that is uniform in composition," and from Wikipedia's definition we can now judge whether or not tea is homogeneous. It really depends on what kind of tea it is. If the tea has no leaves, or no particles that you can see in the bottom... and it is just the tea (liquid) itself then it is a homogeneous solution, but if there are residues/particles/tea leaves on the bottom is no longer homogeneous but a heterogeneous mixture. Note: Not only do you look in the bottom, but look at the tea itself too. :)
