Solution

The correct option is A solid
Solid is characterized by structural rigidity and resistance to change the shape or volume. Unlike a liquid, a solid object does not flow to take on the shape of its container, nor does it expand to fill the entire volume available, like a gas does. The atoms in a solid are tightly bound to each other.
