Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer B

Correct answer: B

Explanation

  1. Rubina is speaking to her son, so she is the boy's mother.

  2. A maternal uncle is the mother's brother, so the man is Rubina's brother.

Worth noting

Brother-in-law would be right only if the boy's father were speaking. Who is talking decides which side 'maternal' refers to.
