Answer - (C) - Both I & II
Brahmanas are the detailed commentaries on the Vedas and contain expository material related to Vedic sacrificial rituals. Brahmanas were composed after the Vedic period. The Brahmanas are noted for their instructions on the proper performance of rituals mentioned in the Vedic literature. Aryankas and Brahmanas both contain the philosophical doctrines explained in Upanishads.
