Answer: Plasma most closely resembles the gaseous state.

Explanation: Plasma is considered as a hot ionized gas which does not consists of atoms or molecules but consists of subatomic particles. Plasma has equal number of both negatively charged electrons and positively charged ions.

As plasma consists of subatomic particles, it is considered as a different state of matter and is most closely related to gaseous state.
