Here we have to choose the correct statements which are applicable and also not applicable for a water in an open system and in an isolated system.

If the liquid water is an open system then the following statements are applicable:

Evaporation can decrease the amount of the water.

Dust from the surroundings can enter the water.

The water can freeze if the surrounding temperature decrease sufficiently.

Water can spill from the container.

If the liquid water is a closed or isolated system then the following statements are applicable:

The water can freeze if the surrounding temperature decrease sufficiently.

If the liquid water is a closed or isolated system then the following statements are not applicable:

Dust from the surroundings can enter the water.

Water can spill from the container.

Evaporation can decrease the amount of the water.

The water in open system means it will come easily in contact with the surroundings. Whereas if is in a close or isolated system then it will not come in contact with the surrounding.
