Solution

The correct option is B

Particulate


Matter is particulate because we cannot divide matter forever.

For e.g.:- Consider water, if we split the water further, we will get hydrogen and oxygen which is no longer water. Basically it is a particle.Continuous means if we can divide any matter infinite times.
