Maple syrup is a mixture of water and natural sugars. It's a clear, brown liquid that cannot be separated by filtration or centrifuge. It is not a suspension or colloid mixture, it is a solution mixture. The correct answer is C.

Correct Answer: Option C i.e Solution

Reason: 
Solutions are characterized by particles of size less than 1nm. Since the particle size in solutions are very small, they cannot be separated by centrifugation. On other hand, colloids have particle size ranging from 1nm to 100 nm, while suspensions have particle size > 100 nm. Hence, they can be separated by centrifugation.
