Who is the person named, by a testator, to carry out the provisions of his will?

  1. Beneficiary

  2. Executor

  3. Heir

  4. Solicitor

The correct answer is: Executor

An executor is a person who carries out the provisions of a will, also known as the testator's last wishes. This person is responsible for ensuring the deceased's assets and property are distributed according to their wishes. Beneficiaries, on the other hand, are individuals who inherit assets and property from the deceased. Heirs are individuals who inherit assets and property because they are related to the deceased. A solicitor is a lawyer who specializes in legal matters, and they may assist in the execution of a will, but they are not the person designated by the testator. Therefore, the correct option is B.
