CorrectNot quiteAnswer D

Correct answer: D

Explanation

  1. The man's father is Lalremsiami's paternal grandfather, so the man is a son of that grandfather.

  2. Lalremsiami's own father is one such son; if the grandfather has another son, he is her paternal uncle.

  3. Nothing says whether the grandfather has one son or more, so the man may be her father or her paternal uncle: it cannot be determined.

Worth noting

Compare this with 'the ONLY son of my father's father', which would settle it as the father. Without 'only', both answers fit.
