2/4 - Bb
1/4 - bb
1/4 - Bb

Answer:

The correct answer would be C. 1/4

The genotype of both the parents is heterozygous that is, Bb.

So, both of them will produce two types of gametes one of which would contain B and the other one would contain b.

The cross would produce offspring with three possible types of genotypes; BB, Bb, and bb in the ratio 1:2:1.

The phenotype ratio would be 3(black): 1 (brown).

Thus, the probability of a homozygous dominant (BB) would be 1 out of 4.
