a

Explanation: Search warrants are typically issued for a limited time and must be executed within that period; arrest warrants generally do not expire. The other statements apply to both types (probable cause is required for each and is assessed by a magistrate/judge), or (b) knock-and-announce can apply to entries for arrests at a dwelling as well.
