Answer:

B. The water particles become locked in place.

Explanation:

In a solid, the particles usually are locked in place because they are packed together. In a liquid, particles can move freely but still are closely packed together. In a gas, particles can move freely where ever they want. The air is an example of a gas because the particles constantly move and bump into each other.
