Explanation:

Isotropic Material:

If the response of the material is independent of the orientation of the load axis of the sample, then we say that the material is isotropic.

A material is said to be isotropic when it exhibits the same elastic properties in any direction at a given point.

Homogenous Material:

A material is homogenous if it has the same composition throughout the body. Hence the elastic properties are the same at every point in the body.

Isotropic material can be either homogeneous or non-homogeneous.
