Detailed Solution & Explanation

Let us determine the gender of each family member step-by-step: 1. 'B is the son of C' implies B is male. 2. 'C is not the mother of B' but B is C's son, which implies C is the father of B. So C is male. 3. 'A and C are a married couple' implies A is the mother of B (since C is the father). So A is female. 4. 'E is the brother of C' implies E is male. 5. 'D is the daughter of A' implies D is female. 6. 'F is the brother of B' implies F is male. Summing the male members: B, C, E, and F are males (total of 4). Hence, **Option D** is the correct answer.
