B. because since Hematoma means “swelling” , on the graph showing tissue blood volume over time I'd called the peak the most likely place where the hematoma occurs.

The right answer is B.

A hematoma is a mass of blood that appears inside a tissue after a haemorrhage that occurs following a shock (for example, after receiving a punch). It can lead to detachment and swelling of the skin.

Hematomas can cause superficial bruising, but can also develop deep or in organs such as the brain.
