Solution

The correct option is C fluid
Fluid is a general term, that both liquid and gas fit under. A liquid has a definite volume and is incompressible. All liquids are fluids, but not all fluids are liquids.
Therefore, fluids are a subset of the phases of matter and include liquids, gases, plasmas and, to some extent, plastic solids, etc.
Hence, the statement is true.
