Solution

The correct option is D depends upon the atmospheric pressure
The level of water will depend upon the atmospheric pressure. If atmospheric pressure is low, the process of evaporation is high, decreasing the water level and then if passengers drink water then water level is further decreased. If atmospheric pressure is high, the reverse happens and passengers drinking water would not affect the water level as such.
