Statement $(i)$ and $(iv)$ are correct. Regulation of lac operon by repressor is referred to as negative regulation. In negative regulation, a repressor molecule binds to the operator of an operon and terminates transcription. In positive regulation, an activator interacts with the $RNA$ polymerase in the promoter region to initiate transcription. Human genome contains some $20,000-25,000$ genes billion bases.
