The correct option is C

(i)-C, (ii)-A, (iii)-B

Mean changes abruptly if any extreme values are added to the data as it is the overall average of the data.
Median is a middle value which lies at the midpoint of a frequency distribution of a given data.
The mode is the most popular observation or the observation appearing the most number of the times in a given set of data.
