The correct option is A C

The given data can be summarized as:

B - Father of E and husband of C.
C - One son C and a daughter G, Wife of B and more intelligent than B
D- Son of A and F, more intelligent than B but less than C.
E- Son of B and C, least intelligent in the family
F - Father of B and D or grandfather of E and G, second most intelligent in the family
G - Daughter of B and C, most intelligent in the family
From the above data, it is quite clear that G is most intelligent, F is second most intelligent.
Now, D is more intelligent than B but less than C. Also, A is less intelligent than B.
Therefore, C is the third most intelligent member in the family
