Answer:

D. A single sound undergoes several reflections due to multiple reflecting surfaces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sometimes, the source of a sound is surrounded by multiple reflecting surfaces. The waves traveling from the source strike these different surfaces, causing multiple reflections. For example, a single clap of thunder reflects on several clouds and the earth's surface, causing you to hear a rolling rumble instead of a single sound.
