It is C as to have freckles you have to have a dominant and recessive gene (can be worked out using a punnett square) as the child has 50% of not having freckles like his dad or 50% having freckles like his mom. 
                     male genes(homozygous recessive)
                     f            f

female    F    Ff           Ff
genes
              f     ff             ff

so ff is not having freckles and being homozygous recessive, or Ff having freckles and being heterozygous.

So the child is heterozygous  so C

  4. This tells us that F is dominant allele
