Solution

The correct options are
A sink
D be smaller than the measuring beaker.
When a body is completely immersed in water, the rise in level of water when it completely sinks gives the volume of the body. This is possible only when the body sinks in the water in the beaker. For the body to completely sink in the beaker, it should be smaller than the beaker.
