B
Type 1
C
Type 2
D
Type 3
E
Type 4
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -TYPE 1 interrupt represents single-step execution during the debugging of a program. TYPE 2 interrupt represents non-maskable NMI interrupt. TYPE 3 interrupt represents break-point interrupt. TYPE 4 interrupt represents overflow interrupt.

Detailed explanation-2: -Interrupt type. Interrupts have two types: Hardware interrupt and Software interrupt. The hardware interrupt occurrs by the interrupt request signal from peripheral circuits. On the other hand, the software interrupt occurrs by executing a dedicated instruction. Various factors of occurring the interrupt.

Detailed explanation-3: -As the name suggests it is a conditional interrupt instruction, i.e. it is active only when the overflow flag is set to 1 and branches to the interrupt handler whose interrupt type number is 4. If the overflow flag is reset then, the execution continues to the next instruction.
