Answer: Segment

Explanation:

Understand what each of these are to answer this question correctly:

A line is a set of points that extends and continues forever. To represent this endlessness, both sides of a line have arrows.

A point is represented by a singular dot. It tells the exact location of something and does not move.

A ray is a line that only extends (continuously) in one direction. It is draw as a line with a point on one end and an arrow on the other.

A segment is a line that ends on both sides. To represent that it does not go on forever, there are points on each end. This is what is drawn in the picture.
