Correct answer: C

  1. We need to identify which compounds are used to inhibit tumour growth.

  2. Check each substance:

    A. EDTA
    EDTA is a chelating agent. It is commonly used for complexometric titrations and for treatment of heavy metal poisoning. It is not used as an antitumour drug.

    B. Coordination compounds of Pt
    Platinum coordination compounds are well-known anticancer agents. They are used in chemotherapy to inhibit tumour growth.

    C. D-Penicillamine
    D-Penicillamine is a chelating agent used mainly in Wilson's disease and for removal of certain heavy metals. It is not an antitumour drug.

    D. Cis-platin
    Cis-platin is a platinum coordination compound and is a famous anticancer drug used to inhibit tumour growth.

  3. Therefore, the compounds used to inhibit tumour growth are: B and D\text{B and D}B and D

  4. Match with options:

  • A: A and B only — incorrect
  • B: C and D only — incorrect
  • C: B and D only — correct
  • D: A and C only — incorrect

Hence, the correct option is: C\boxed{\text{C}}C​
