The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

A test cross is used to determine the genotype of an individual showing a dominant trait. When a heterozygous (Tt) individual is crossed with a homozygous recessive (tt) individual, the offspring will show a 1:1 ratio. Half of the progeny will be heterozygous (Tt), displaying the dominant trait, and the other half will be homozygous recessive (tt), showing the recessive trait.
