Best answer
Right answer is (a) Pressure

The explanation: Pumps increase pressure rather than velocity. During the pumping process, a housing is provided for the pumping elements. These parts can change the speed. Pumps create a passage way that will squirt the fluid passing through it. Thus, pumping increases pressure.
