Compression or stretching can change the shape of an object without changing its volume. When an object is compressed or stretched in one direction, its shape is altered but the volume remains constant.
The matter that can change shape and volume is gas.

A solid does. Liquids change in shape and gases change in both shape and volume.
A solid has a definite shape and volume.
A solid has a fixed volume and does not change shape.
A gas can change shape but it doesn't change volume, a liquid also changes shape but doesn't change volume.
The phase that can change shape and easily change its volume is gas. Unlike solids, which maintain a fixed shape and volume, and liquids, which have a fixed volume but take the shape of their container, gases have neither fixed shape nor fixed volume. They expand to fill the entire space of their container, adapting both shape and volume based on environmental conditions.
Yes, they can take the shape and volume of their container.
They are fluid (can flow into and takes the shape of any container), compressible (volume can decrease without change in mass), and have no fixed shape.
You can change the shape of an object without changing its volume by compressing or stretching it in different dimensions. For example, you can squish a ball into an oval shape or stretch it into a longer cylinder while ensuring that the overall amount of space the object occupies remains the same.
