Answer:

The correct answer would be C) 1/4.

The genotype of both parents is Bb.

Thus, each parent would produce two types of gametes. One gamete would contain B and the other would contain b.

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

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

Thus, the frequency or probability of BB would be one out of four, that is, 1/4.
