The correct answer is:
(ii) and some regions of (iv)
The device which follows square law can be used for modulation purpose. Characteristics shown by (i) and (iii) corresponds to linear devices as graphs are straight line. Characteristics shown by Graph (ii) corresponds to the square law device. Some part of graph (iv) also shows square law.
Hence, (ii) and (iv) can be used for modulation.
