Question:

A husband and wife own lot A as joint tenants and lot B as tenants-in-common. The husband's will reads: “I leave lot A to my son John and Lot B to my daughter Mary”. Who takes what when the husband dies?
a. The son, John, gets Lot A and daughter Mary gets Lot B just as their father wished and designated in his will.
b. John will get Lot A but Mary will not get Lot B because it was co-owned with the mother as tenants-in-common so the mother takes Lot B as the other tenant-in-common.
c. Mary will get all of lot Lot B but John will not get Lot A because it was coowned with the mother in joint-tenancy so the mother takes Lot A as the surviving joint tenant. 

d. Mary will get her father's interest in Lot B, but John will only get a life tenancy in Lot A.
e. Mary will get her father's interest in Lot B, but John will get no interest in Lot A.
