C. The kidneys

This is because their one of their functions is to extract other materials from liquid which is what is happening as Alicia strains the liquid (water) from the solids (sand and pebbles).

Answer:

Option C, Kidneys

Step-by-step explanation:

Kidney is very essential as it regulates the fluid content in our body; it also filters out essential nutrients from the blood; filters waste material from food and also regulate blood pressure. In the model, it is depicted that solid material is filtered out form the liquid. This process conjugates with the filtering process of kidneys.

Heart is responsible for pumping blood, glands secrete hormones and stomach digest food.

Option C is correct
