- A.
  
  Gas

A. Gas

Explanation
The correct answer is gas because a balloon is typically filled with a gas, such as helium or air. Gases have the ability to expand and fill the space they are contained in, which allows the balloon to inflate and take on a specific shape. In contrast, solids and liquids would not be able to fill the balloon in the same way. Air, on the other hand, is a mixture of gases and is often used to fill balloons.

A rock is a solid form of matter. It is made up of minerals and has a definite shape and volume.

Therefore, the correct answer is solid.
