The term pressure most nearly refers to C: the force per area created by the weight of water. 
Pressure is defined as the exertion of thrust or a force upon the surface of an object that comes into contact with the force. The measurement is "force per area". Water pressure is measured in bars or pounds per square inch. Water pressure forces water through pipes from reservoirs of water to houses. It also determines how strong the water flows out of household taps.
