Solution

'Homogeneous products' is a characteristic of perfect competition only and pure oligopoly only.

Explanation:

Perfect competition and pure oligopoly both produce homogeneous products. In perfect competition, all businesses sell the same things with no differentiation. Similarly, in a true oligopoly, the few firms in the market provide similar products, with little difference between the items offered by different enterprises.
