Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

If P is to be grandmother of Q, P and Q should have a generation gap of 2 between them. Now, out of the given four relationships only one i.e. + (father) has a relationship that has some gap. So , a correct answer must have exactly 2 + sign between P and Q. This eliminates choice 1.
Again if Q was to be a grandchild , the path between P and Q should have continuous blood-relations . But in choice (2), Q and T are not blood related , in choice 3, S and B are not blood-related. This leaves choice 4 only. Let us try its tree:
`{:(P (-) hArr R (+)),(" "|),(" "S (-)- T (+)),(" "|),(" "Q (-)hArr U (+)):}`
