Okay, then! First, you need to to know what a karst aquifer is. Then you can start eliminating the "nonsense" answers from your list.

A karst aquifer is basically a tunnel of rocks that carries groundwater. Groundwater is the water that is stored underground. When it rains, the water flows and makes a sort of underwater lake or river. The karst aquifer carries that water form underground up into an area where humans and animals can reach it. Do you get it?
