Flexible
- A.
  
  Fish tank;
- B.
  
  Elastic; stretchable; bendable
- C.
  
  Outer edge
Correct Answer
B. Elastic; stretchable; bendable

Explanation
The term "flexible" refers to something that is capable of bending or stretching without breaking. In the context of a fish tank, it suggests that the tank is made of a material that can withstand pressure or movement without cracking or leaking. The words "elastic," "stretchable," and "bendable" all convey the same idea of being able to deform or change shape easily. Therefore, these words can be used interchangeably to describe the fish tank's outer edge.

Pulses
- A.
  
  Bendable; elastic
- B.
  
  Regular, measured beats
- C.

Correct Answer
B. Regular, measured beats

Explanation
The term "pulses" refers to regular, measured beats. This suggests that the object or phenomenon being described has a rhythmic pattern or a consistent interval between each beat. The other options provided in the question, such as "bendable; elastic" or "outer edge," do not fit the definition of "pulses" as they do not imply a regular and measured rhythm. Therefore, the correct answer is "regular, measured beats."

Explanation
The word "surface" refers to the outermost layer or outer edge of an object. It is the part that is visible and can be touched. The other given words, "stretchable," "flexible," and "bendable," do not directly relate to the concept of an outer edge. Therefore, the correct answer is "outer edge."
