Liquids don't have a definite shape so that means it does not take shape of its contaner but, solids do for example when you put water in a bown and freeze it up then it will stay there. Hope i helped :D

The answer would be that it is a liquid. It does not have a definite shape. That is why is takes the shape of what ever container it fits into.
