I don't have enough information to choose. Please tell me the parents' phenotypes or the offspring phenotypic ratios (or upload the diagram/question text).
How to decide once you have that information:
- If both parents show the recessive phenotype, each must be bb → answer B.
- If both parents show the dominant phenotype, each could be BB or Bb (or one BB and one Bb). So "both parents = BB" (A) is possible, and "both parents = Bb" (C) is also possible, depending on the case — you need offspring data to tell BB vs Bb.
- If one parent shows the dominant phenotype and the other the recessive phenotype, the recessive parent is bb and the dominant parent could be BB or Bb.
Give the parents' phenotypes or the offspring ratios and I will pick the correct option(s).
