A - C: A is husband of C (C is wife). C x P: C is mother of P. P! L: P is brother of L. L * Q: L is father of Q.
Determine the relation between C and L
From C x P, C is the mother of P. Since P! L means P is the brother of L, then C must also be the mother of L.
A: Daughter is incorrect because C is the parent generation. C: Son is incorrect because C is defined as a mother (female) in the x relation. D: Father is incorrect because C is the husband's wife, implying C is female.
B is correct because the sequence C x P! L establishes that C is the mother of P, and P is the brother of L, making C the mother of L.
