Answer: The healthcare industry invented robotic surgery using computer programming.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can answer this question using the process of elimination.

Blood pressure cuffs are generally analog (meaning they don't use computers), and even if there are some that use computer programming, they are not the best example on this list.

Drones were created with computer programming but were not invented by the healthcare industry.

Plant growth can be tracked using computers with programming, but this is a part of biological sciences and not medical sciences.

Robotic surgery uses computer programs to move arms and operate on humans, which solves the problem of human error and lack of surgeon personell. This innovation was invented by the healthcare industry to solve a problem.
