Answer:

The solid which is generated when the semicircle is rotated about the line is:

Sphere.

Explanation:

We know that when a semicircle is rotated about any line then the three dimensional figure or a solid that is formed on this rotation transformation is Sphere.

Hence, the correct option is:

Sphere.

( Also, a cylinder is obtained when a right triangle is rotated about a given line.

and a cylinder is obtained when a rectangle is rotated about a given line )
