Solution

The correct option is A Percolation
$P e r c o l a t i o n r a t e = \frac{t h e a m o u n t o f w a t e r (m l)}{t h e a m o u n t o f t i m e t a k e n}$

Percolation rate varies for different types of soil.
Example- Clay soil have a very less percolation rate while the sandy soil have a very hight percolation rate.
