There's a tiny metal ball inside. Over time, the correction fluid will start to dry and thicken inside the container, the chemical components seperating out from the water inside. The ball helps mix things up again when you shake it.

A typical correction fluid bottle, such as Tipp-Ex, contains a mixture of pigments, solvents, and other chemicals to form a thick liquid that can cover mistakes. The noise you may hear when shaking it comes from the pigments and other solid particles inside the bottle moving around and colliding with each other.
