A. water and power come from external sources.

Explanation:

To determine if a system is a closed or an open one, we need to determine if it interacts with the external environment.

A closed system is the one that doesn't have interaction with the external environment, mass or energy is never transfered from the outside of the system.

An open system regularly exchanges feedback with an external environment.  

In this case as the power and water, which are importat for the functioning of the washing machine, come from an external source, we are refering to an open system.
