Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because statements (i) and (iii) are true; reviews help find defects early, and informal reviews can be applied to both code and specifications. Statement (v) is also accurate, as dynamic techniques are typically utilized after the code is executable. The other options contain false or unsupported statements.
