- B.
  
  Liquids
- C.
  
  Gases
- D.
  
  All of these
Correct Answer
D. All of these

Explanation

In liquids, the particles are not as closely packed as in solids, but they still exert pressure on the walls of the container they are in. In gases, the particles are far apart and move freely, exerting pressure in all directions. Therefore, all three states of matter exert pressure.
