Answer: B.) A water molecule from the South Atlantic can fall as rain into an inland lake.

Step-by-step explanation:

The South Atlantic Ocean is one of the source of earth's reserved water. The water will be evaporated by the process of heating up of the water. The vapors of water will be accumulated in the atmosphere where these water vapors will be condensed into precipitate or rain. This precipitation will fall in the inland lake and again the water of ocean will become the part of another water reservoir that is lake.
