Solution

The correct option is A Autosomal Dominant
As we can observe from the figure that the father with autosomal dominant disorder passes it to his children. We know that the autosomes are passed by the parents to the offspring so to carry this type of autosomal dominant disorder one should have the disease autosome.
So the correct option is 'Autosomal dominant'.
