The best three answers that apply to the involvement of water in getting a hamburger meal to your table are:

1. **Water use at the slaughterhouse for cleaning and processing the cow**
Explanation: Water is crucial for sanitation and processing during the slaughtering and meat packaging stages.

2. **Water for the cow to drink and to grow the grass it eats**
Explanation: Water is necessary for the cow's hydration and the irrigation of the crops (like grass) that it consumes.

3. **Water involved in the generation of electricity at the meat packing plant**
Explanation: Water is often used in power generation processes that support the operations of meat packing plants.

Water stored in underground aquifers and water from the ocean are less directly related to the hamburger's production when considering the immediate processes involved.
