    A. The water decreases the friction between the floor and the feet

    Explanation: Think about it like this, when your in the shower and water is on your skin, you can scrub it fluidly, but when the water dries in your towel, there is more friction when your rub your skin, this is because the molecules in water aren't as compact as solids, so anything acting against it, is most likely to disperse from it.
