Fluids, whether in the form of liquids or gases, are known as "fluids" because they can easily flow and change shape when subject to external forces such as pressure. Therefore, both liquids and gases readily transmit pressure. Option A is incorrect because while gases have higher compressibility and can transmit pressure more easily, liquids can also transmit pressure. Option C is incorrect because fluids do transmit pressure, as they can easily flow and change shape. Option D is incorrect because it implies that only liquids can transmit pressure, when in fact, both gases and liquids can transmit pressure.
