Answer:

a. Tibial

Step-by-step explanation:

The Tibial nerve is responsible for the cutaneous innervation of the plantar region of the foot. The heel region is directly innervated by the Tibial nerve, and then, this nerve has two terminal branches that are called Plantar nerves that innervate the remaining most part of the plantar surface.
