Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
Scanning requires moving across rows (horizontal) and columns (vertical) of a matrix or grid. Therefore, horizontal and vertical patterns are needed to accomplish this function. The other options (left and right, up and down, and input and output) do not accurately describe the pattern needed for scanning.
