The answer would be: III. Many genes may be responsible for obesity so it is currently not possible to determine whether Doug is destined for obesity.

Answer I is a stretch, he might not become obese just because of his genetic mutation. Answer IV is completely irrational, and Answer II is too unsure to be able to say for certain.
