The correct answers are: All of them.
- Runs off into the ocean;
The parts of the land that are close to the ocean, and are leaned towards it, especially if it is a more rocky landscape, when receiving precipitation, the water runs off directly into the ocean, though this is happening only on a relatively small area.
- Runs off into the streams and rivers;
Most of the precipitation on the land, ends up in the closest streams and rivers which increase their volume and carry the water further downstream.
- Enters the water table of groundwater;
Part of the precipitation managed to get through the soil and the rocks, and enters deeper, eventually reaching the underground reservoirs and filling them, thus contributing to the levels of the groundwater.
- Taken up from shallow soil by plants;
The plants need water for survival, so when there's precipitation, through their roots (some through their leaves), are taking water from the soil, thus spending part of it for their own needs.

The pores on the outer layer of the sponge which takes is water are called POROCYTES.
Sponges are groups of very simple animals which usually grow at a spot, that is, they lack the ability to move from one place to another. There are about 10,000 species of sponges; most sponges live in salt water while some live in fresh water. The body surface of sponges are made up of holes through which water enter into their cells.
