Solution

The correct option is A Below the teeth
Dental pulp is the enter part of a tooth made up of living connective tissue and cells occupies the central pulp cavity of each tooth. It will extend down through the root of the tooth as the root canal which opens into the periodontium via the apical foramen.
So the correct option is 'Below the teeth.'
