Answer:

C. Total flow

Explanation:

The total amount of fluid that has passed a designated point is designated as the total flow.

The flow rate is the rate at which fluid passes through a certain point, not the total amount of fluid.

Laminar and turbulent flow are different types of fluid flow patterns and don't characterize a volume of fluid.

Therefore, the correct answer is C. Total flow.
