a
b
c
d

Explanation:

CPR is a well - known medical procedure. The correct expansion of CPR is cardiopulmonary resuscitation. 'Cardio' refers to the heart, 'pulmonary' refers to the lungs, and'resusciation' means the act of reviving. Option A has an incorrect root word ('palpatory' is not relevant here). Option B has incorrect words ('preparatory' and'rescue'). Option D is a wrong description as it is not the standard medical term.

Answer:

C. cardiopulmonary resuscitation
