Correct choice is (a) Adjustable orifice semi-module

The best I can explain: Adjustable Proportional Module (APM) is also called Adjustable Orifice Semi-Module (AOSM). It consists of an orifice provided with a gradually expanding flume on the downstream side of the orifice. This outlet is very popular due to several merits over other types and is used in Punjab and Haryana.
