AI explanation

To answer this question, we need to understand the family relationship described in the question.

The question states that "Walter's grandmother's daughter is Walter's son's _________."

Let's go through each option to determine the correct answer:

Option A) Aunt - This option is incorrect because an aunt is the sister of one's parent, not the daughter of one's grandparent.

Option B) Mother - This option is incorrect because Walter's son's mother is Walter's wife, not his grandmother's daughter.

Option C) Grandmother - This option is correct. Walter's grandmother's daughter is Walter's mother. Therefore, Walter's son's grandmother is Walter's mother.
