Answer: B.the aqueducts

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to bring freshwater from foreign sources into their cities, the Romans constructed aqueducts during the Republic and Empire times. They were structures made of concrete, stone or brick, designed to control the gradient, to go either faster or slower on the water flow. The aqueducts would often adapt to the terrain and some were buried beneath the ground.
