C
fixed-ratio schedule
D
reinforcement

Detailed explanation-1: -Fixed-interval schedules are those where the first response is rewarded only after a specified amount of time has elapsed. This schedule causes high amounts of responding near the end of the interval but slower responding immediately after the delivery of the reinforcer.

Detailed explanation-2: -Variable interval (VI) schedule: In a variable interval schedule, the amount of time that must elapse before reinforcement can be given for a correct response is variable rather than fixed.

Detailed explanation-3: -In a ratio schedule reinforcement occurs after a certain number of responses have been emitted. Interval schedules involve reinforcing a behavior after a period of time has passed.
