Answer 1

Answer: (D)

Cannot be determined

E is the daughter of A and F is the mother of E.

So, A is the father of E and hence the husband of F.

Now, D is the daughter of F.

So, D and E are the daughters of A and F.

Also, A is the son of C. Now, only B remains. Thus, B and C are the parents of A.
The gender of B and C cannot be determined.
