Solution(By Examveda Team)
From I, we conclude that H is the only daughter of M. But this does not indicate that M has no son. The information given in II is immaterial.This Question Belongs to Competitive Reasoning >> Data Sufficiency

Nowhere in the question is it asked to find out, how many son does M has?
Its just asked how many children M has irrespective of their gender which is quite clear from statement 1 that M has one child.( st-2 dosen't count though)
so in my opinion 1 is the correct ans.
