Explanation:

Thus, all the three means to admit new states in Union need a law by the parliament. Such legislation of law also follows suitable changes in the First schedule of the constitution. However, such changes don’t amount to be called as Constitution amendments (article 4)
Schedule 4, which contains the seats in Rajya Sabha, may change if new state is formed or one or more state is subsumed in other. Hence schedule 1 and 4 will get ammended and answer is Option b
Further Schedule 5 and 6 may change if the state covered in 5th and 6th is altered.
