Question

a genotype of bb is _. a heterozygous b homozygous recessive c heterozygous recessive d homozygous dominant

Explanation:

• Heterozygous: Refers to having two different alleles for a particular gene. In the genotype \(Bb\), there are two different alleles (\(B\) and \(b\)).
• Homozygous recessive: Would be like \(bb\) (two of the same recessive alleles).
• Heterozygous recessive is not a standard term. Recessive usually refers to the trait expressed when homozygous (\(bb\)), not a modifier for heterozygous.
• Homozygous dominant would be \(BB\) (two of the same dominant alleles).

Answer:

A. heterozygous
