Explanation:

- Section 304-A of the IPC covers causing death by negligence, not by intention or knowledge.

- Option 1: If death is caused with any intention or knowledge, Section 304-A does not apply. This is covered under culpable homicide.

- Option 2: If the act does not amount to culpable homicide, Section 304-A applies (as it's meant for such cases).

- Option 3: Both (a) and (b) states Section 304-A does not apply if death is caused intentionally/knowingly and if the act doesn’t amount to culpable homicide, which is not true — it only doesn’t apply in the first scenario (a), not the second.

- Option 4: None of the above means Section 304-A applies in all situations, which is incorrect.

Correct Answer: Option 1 (only when death is caused with intention or knowledge, Section 304-A does not apply).
