Solution

The correct option is C

Fall


Fall

A noun which is made up of two or more existing words, to form a completely new word in meaning is known as compound noun. Here, water forms a compound noun with fall i.e waterfall. A waterfall is a cascade of water falling from a height, formed when a river or stream flows over a steep incline. Water does not form any compound noun with food, stick and out.

Hence, the correct option is (C)
