Answer:

C. solid

Step-by-step explanation:

Solid is a hard and not able to flow; not like a liquid or gas. Having no holes; not hollow. Something that is not liquid and gas. Solid has fixed volume but not a fixed shape.

The liquid is something that flows freely; a substance that is not solid or gas.

Gas is a substance that neither liquid nor solid, e.g. air.

Plasma is an electrically neutral ionized gas in an electric discharge; distinctly different from solids and liquids and normal gases.

Therefore, the correct answer is C. solid.
