Solution

The correct option is C (i) and (iv)
Voluntary termination of pregnancy before full term is called Medical Termination of Pregnancy (MTP). It is less riskier during first trimester (upto 12th week) and requires assistance of qualified medical personnel. It can also be induced using chemical drugs. Mifepristone + prostaglandin are examples of this. These drugs are taken only in the supervision of qualified medical personnel.
So, the correct answer is '(i) and (iv)'.
