Answer:

D. Between D and C

According to the information (i) F is between B and A B > F > A or A > F > B (ii) E is shorter than D but taller than C and C is taller than A A < C < E < D (iii) E and F have two boys between them Then we have either D > E > C > A > F > B or D > E > C > A < F < B (iv) A is not shortest among them all Therefore, the only possible case is D > E > C > A > F > B Hence, E is between D and C.
