Answer:

(b)i and ii

Explanation:

A relation is in the second normal form if it fulfills the following two requirements:

  1. It is in first normal form.
  2. It does not have any non-prime attribute that is functionally dependent on any proper subset of any candidate key of the relation. A non-prime attribute of a relation is an attribute that is not a part of any candidate key of the relation.

From the above definition, it is only (i) and (ii) that satisfy the definition.
