Solution

The correct option is C Rock is solid, water is liquid
Solids have a definite shape and size. Due to the rigidity in the solid, they cannot change the shape. Hence, it cannot enter the bottle easily.

Water on the other hand is a liquid. They do not have a fixed shape so it can easily get into the bottle and take the shape of the bottle.
