Solution

The correct option is A All normal
Genotype of father and mother:
Father – X*Y
Mother – XX

So the offsprings will be of the genotype:
X*X
X*X
XY
XY

The girls will be the carrier for the haemophilia gene and are normal whereas the boys will be normal because the mother is normal.

So, the correct answer is 'All normal'.
