Solution

The correct option is D Pedigree analysis
Pedigrees are charts of family histories that show the phenotypes and family relationships of the individuals using symbols to represent different family members. Squares represent males, circles represent females, filled-in-symbols represent individuals who have a genetic condition, and a probandis the first affected family member that seeks medical attention. Such pedigree charts are used for human genetic counseling.
