Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.

There is no ______ in the container for the water to flow.

outlet

The most appropriate option to fill in the blank is outlet.

An outlet is a hole or opening that allows something to flow out. It is the most accurate word to describe the place where the water can flow out of the container.

The other options are incorrect.

• Link means "a connection between two things." It is not the correct word to use in this sentence because the container and the water are not connected, they are just touching.
• Room means "space to move or live in." It is not the correct word to use in this sentence because the water does not need room to flow out of the container, it just needs an outlet.
• Escape means "to get away from something dangerous or unpleasant." It is not the correct word to use in this sentence because the water is not trying to escape from the container, it is just trying to flow out of it.
