On page 4, why does the author refer to the

underground passages filled with boiling water

as "the geyser's plumbing system"?

Water travels through the passages in a manner

that is similar to water flowing through pipes in a

plumbing system.

Clogs or blockages in the passages occur

frequently, just as pipes get clogged in a plumbing

system.

Just like a plumbing system, the passages are

constructed to connect to one another.

When a geyser erupts from the ground, it is similar

to a water leak exploding from a pipe.

    Explanation:

    I believe this answer choice would best explain the use of the comparison because in the same sentence, the author is writing about the "system of underground passages," (which are filled with water) and this answer choice is the only one that actually discusses how the water travels through the system.
