liquid

gas
D
plasma
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Thus, the correct answer is ‘liquid’. Liquids have a definite volume but no definite shape.

Detailed explanation-2: -A liquid has a definite volume but no definite shape of its own. The shape of a liquid changes with the shape of its container. The particles in a liquid are packed almost as closely together as in a solid. However, the particles in a liquid can move around freely.

Detailed explanation-3: -Water is unique because the properties of water allow it to exist in all three states of matter! Water is usually a liquid, but when it reaches to 32° Fahrenheit (F), it freezes into ice. (Ice is the solid state of water.) When water reaches 212° F, it boils.
