i is possible if B&D are next to each other with a vacant step in between.
ii can never be possible as it is very clearly mentioned that A is two steps below C where it doesn't matters whether the steps are vacant or not
iii is also possible as E can surely occupy a place beside the vacant step
So, the answer would be (B)
