Answer:

The correct answer is option C which is atoms.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Matter is made up of many tiny particles which are smallest units of matter. These units are known as atoms.
  • Many atoms combined to form a molecule.
  • These molecules are bonded to each other in different arrangement. Based on this arrangement, matter can be present in solid, liquid and gas form.
  • In solid atoms are tightly arranged while in liquid they are loosely arranged.
