Best answer
The correct option is (c) Partial pressure

Easiest explanation: The partial pressure of oxygen molecules dissolved in a liquid, such as blood plasma. Technically the oxygen tension (or partial pressure of oxygen) is defined as the pressure which oxygen in a mixture of gases would exert if it were on its own. Weirdly, partial pressures/gas tensions are also used to describe dissolved gases, in the blood for example.
