The correct answer is
A is the son of C.

Decoding Relationship Symbols

First, let's understand the meaning of each symbol:

  • $+$ means 'is the father of'
  • $^$ means 'is the mother of'
  • $@$ means 'is the sister of'
  • $&$ means 'is the brother of'
  • $#$ means 'is the wife of'

Analyzing the Relationship String

We are given the string: $U + Q ^ R @ N & C ^ I @ J # A$. Let's break it down step-by-step to build the family tree:

  1. $U + Q$: U is the father of Q.
  2. $Q ^ R$: Q is the mother of R. (So, U is the father of Q, and Q is the mother of R).
  3. $R @ N$: R is the sister of N. (So, Q is the mother of both R and N. R and N are siblings).
  4. $N & C$: N is the brother of C. (So, Q is the mother of R, N, and C. R, N, and C are siblings).
  5. $C ^ I$: C is the mother of I. (So, C is a parent of I).
  6. $I @ J$: I is the sister of J. (So, C is the mother of both I and J. I and J are siblings).
  7. $J # A$: J is the wife of A. (So, A is the husband of J).

Constructing the Family Tree

From the breakdown, we can infer the following:

  • U and Q are the parents of R, N, and C.
  • Q is the mother of R, N, and C. Therefore, U is the maternal grandfather of R, N, and C.
  • C is the mother of I and J.
  • J is the wife of A. This means A is the son-in-law of C.
  • Since C is the mother of I and J ($C ^ I$), C is female. As Q is the mother of C, C is the daughter of Q.
  • Since R is the sister of N ($R @ N$), R is female. Since N is the brother of C ($N & C$), N is male.

Evaluating the Options

Now, let's check each statement based on our family tree:

  • Option 1: A is the son of C.
    • We know J is the wife of A, and C is the mother of J.
    • This makes A the son-in-law of C, not the son.
    • This statement is NOT correct.
  • Option 2: Q is the mother of N.
    • From step 3 and 4 of the analysis, Q is the mother of R, N, and C.
    • This statement is correct.
  • Option 3: U is the maternal grandfather of R.
    • U is the father of Q (step 1), and Q is the mother of R (step 2).
    • Therefore, U is the maternal grandfather of R.
    • This statement is correct.
  • Option 4: C is the daughter of Q.
    • From step 4, Q is the mother of C.
    • From step 5, C is the mother of I, meaning C is female.
    • Since Q is the mother of C and C is female, C is the daughter of Q.
    • This statement is correct.

Conclusion

The statement that is NOT correct is "A is the son of C."
