Detailed Solution

  • Due to its elasticity, a body can return to its former shape after being subjected to an external force. 
  • Elasticity and elastic limit are both material qualities, not bodily characteristics.
  • For liquids and gases, the rigidity modulus is zero.
  • Thus, liquids and gases cannot experience shear stress.

Hence the correct answer is only a, c and d.
