Options

A. Brother and sister
B. Cousins
C. Niece and uncle
D. Uncle and aunt

Answer

C

Explanation

Clearly. A is father of E, D and B of which E and D are sons and B.s sex is not given and C is B.s daughter hence two possibilities exist :
(i) When B is female - then E (and also D) is maternal uncle of C. So option (3).
(ii) When B is male - then E (and also D) is paternal uncle of C.
Hence C and E are neice and uncle respectively.
Option (3) is correct.
