A solid body guitar is just that, the body of the guitar is made of solid wood, some time one piece or a few, with no sound holes. A semi-hollow body guitar is made more like an acoustic guitar but more shallow, usually with sound holes off to the side rather than in the center as an acoustic guitar would. These sound holes are often in the shape of an "F."
An acoustic is a guitar that is hollow, and has a large hole in the body to create the nice sounds that an acoustic makes. A solid body guitar does not have a hole, and is not hollow. It uses pickups instead of a hole and is usually a lot smaller.
It can be both.
A hollow body guitar is a guitar with a hollow body in contrast to solid body guitars. They are generally lighter that solid body guitars because its body mass is reduced as a result of the addition of sound chambers.
The body of a guitar is hollow to allow sound to resonate within it.
Actually some electrics are hollow bodied or semi hollow bodied. This is done for tonallity. Otherwise, they will still plug into an amp and play just like a regular solid body guitar would. Ibanez made the Artcore line which is hollow and Semi hollow. Fender Stratocasters, Gibson Les Pauls and SG's etc. are all solid body guitars. With the hollow body the resonance and sustain seem to improve; if you're looking to buy, go play both kinds of rigs on the same amp and see what fits your taste more!

Because guitar have been hollow for centuries, so the solid body guitar was something completely new at the time of its invention
There are both types. As well as semi-hollow but most electric guitars are solid and are also called 'solidbody'
Yes, there are solid, hollow and semi-hollow body types of electric guitars.
they have hollow bone and human bones are solid
A guitar is hollow. Just look in the hole the string go across. I have dropped my pick inside many many times.
