(a) Shared Resources

it is necessary condition for deadlock.since if resources are not shared then every process will get its private resources and always executes.

(b) No Preemption

it a necessary condition.since if there is a preemption of RESOURCES then a deadlock never occurs.

(c) Acyclic condition among processes

dont know what does this mean!

so answer is maybe C or D
