The correct answer is DNA is only found in cells with nuclear membranes. The nuclear membrane is a double membrane layer that acts as a barricade that physically cushions the cell’s DNA from the chemical reactions that are occurring elsewhere in the cell.

The statement that is true is the third "Both of Maxine's parents are excellent painters. It is likely that Maxine will also paint well". This is due to inheritance of traits, according to mendelian laws of heredity.

It is not true that DNA is only found in cells with nuclear membranes because Prokaryotes have no nuclear membrane, yet they have a nucleus.

It is not true that Spiders must learn how to spin webs from their parents because it has been proven that Spiders spin webs correctly on the first try.

It is not true that female humans have two Y chromosomes, but male humans only have one. Female humans have two X chromosomes while male humans have one X and one Y Chromosome.
