This question was posed to me in an interview.

This interesting question is from Types of Cross Drainage Work topic in portion Cross Drainage Work of Irrigation Engineering

Answer 1

Correct choice is (b) aqueduct

Easy explanation: In Aqueduct, the drainage water runs below the canal either freely or under symphonic action. In Super passage, the drain is taken over the canal such that the canal water runs below the drain. Similarly, a syphon is also a reverse of aqueduct syphon.
