Solution

The correct answer is A. Solids keep their shape. Gases and liquids take the shape of their container. This is because the particles in a solid are tightly packed and hold a definite shape, while the particles in a liquid and gas are not as tightly bound together, allowing them to flow and take the shape of their container.
