Explanation:

Step1: Count heterozygous offspring

Heterozygous is having different alleles (e.g., Gg). In the Punnett square, the genotypes are GG, Gg, Gg, gg. So Gg appears 2 times. Total offspring: 4.

Step2: Calculate percentage

Percentage = (Number of heterozygous / Total) × 100 = (2/4) × 100 = 50%.

Answer:

D. 50%
