Solution

  • Fluids are substances that can flow.
  • Liquid and gas are called fluids since they have the tendency to flow.
  • Liquids flow from a higher level to a lower level under the influence of any force generally gravity.
  • Gases flow from high pressure to a low-pressure area.
  • Solids do not have the tendency to flow hence they are not categorized as fluids.
  • Examples of fluid can be water, milk, air, etc.

Hence, gases and liquids are the states of matter which can flow.
