Solution

The correct option is D Tea leaves in water​
Filtration is a method used to separate insoluble solid components from liquids. It cannot be used to separate components which are soluble in liquids.​

Glucose, sugar and salt are soluble in water. Therefore, they cannot be separated from water using filtration.​

Tea leaves are insoluble in water. Therefore, they can be separated from water using filtration.​
