    1. reflect B. the reflection C. can reflect D. reflecting
I know that the answer is either “A” or “C”. I opt “A. reflect”. However, the answer is “C. can reflect”. I don’t understand why.

None of those answers is grammatically and/or semantically possible, firefly. It is another very sloppy question. I suppose that the correct sentence is this: Artificial satellites provide data on atmospheric temperatures, solar radiation and reflection from the earth's surface.
