(a) There are always twelve.  No, atomic mass of Carbon is 12 but the number of protons is half the atomic mass (6).

(b) There are always six.  The answer is correct. Carbon's atomic number is 6, that means that it has 6 protons.

(c) It depends on the isotope.  It's wrong, depends on the isotope the number of neutrons but not the number of protons.

(d) There are always four.  No, 4 is the number of protons of Beryllium.
