The correct terms that apply to the object are:

B. Solid

C. Polyhedron

E. Prism

The figure shows a multiple-choice question asking which terms correctly describe the object shown. The object appears to be a three-dimensional shape, and the possible answers are:

A. Polygon

B. Solid

C. Polyhedron

D. Pyramid

E. Prism

F. Cube

Here's how to analyze each option:

1. Polygon: This term refers to a flat shape with straight sides. The object in the figure is three-dimensional, not flat, so "Polygon" is not correct.

2. Solid: This term generally refers to a three-dimensional object, and since the object in the figure has three dimensions, "Solid" is correct.

3. Polyhedron: This term refers to a three-dimensional shape with flat polygonal faces, straight edges, and sharp corners. The object matches this description, so "Polyhedron" is correct.

4. Pyramid: A pyramid has a base that is a polygon and other faces that are triangles which converge at a single point. The object in the figure does not have a point where faces converge, so "Pyramid" is not correct.

5. Prism: A prism is a polyhedron with two parallel and congruent faces (called bases) and other faces that are parallelograms. Since the object has this configuration, "Prism" is correct.

6. Cube: A cube is a special case of a prism (and a polyhedron) that has six square faces. Since the faces of the object in the figure are not squares, "Cube" is not correct.
