Solution

The correct option is B
particulate

Matter is particulate because we cannot divide matter forever.

For example, consider water. If we split the water chemically, 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.
