4. Given the predicates male(x), female(x), parent(x, y) (x is a parent of y), define the following predicates in terms of male, female, parent, or other pred- icates defined from these three predicates, in first-order logic: (a) father(x, y): x is the father of y. (b) mother(x, y): x is the mother of y. (c) ancesotor(x, y): x is an ancestor of y.
