Answer»

Right option is (b) Father

Easy explanation: The MALES are produced by parthenogenesis, i.e. by mitosis. While fertilization only takes place in case of a FEMALE child, only the two X chromosomes COME TOGETHER. Thus, the male has a mother but no father; they do however have a grandfather.
