Answer : The correct option is,

A solid  : a definite volume and  a definite shape.

Explanation :

As we know that there are 3 states of matter :

Solid state : It is defined as a state in which the particles are closely packed and does not have any space between them. This state have a definite shape and volume.  For example : iron metal

Liquid state : It is defined as a state in which the particles are present in random and irregular pattern. The particles are closely arranged but they can move from one place to another. This state have a definite volume but does not have a fixed shape.  For example : water

Gaseous state : It is defined as a state in which the particles are loosely arranged and have a lot of space between them. This state have indefinite volume as well as shape.  For example : Any type of gas like, helium gas.
