Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

In a monohybrid cross, there are two monohybrids out of total of four offsprings. (AA: Aa: aa =1 :2 :1). Thus their proportion is 50%. In a dihybrid cross, there are four dihybrids out of total sixteen offsprings. (AABB: AAbb: aaBB: aabb: AaBB: AABb: Aabb: aaBb : AaBb = 1 : 1 : 1 : 1 : 2 : 2: 2 : 2 : 4). Thus their proportion is 25%.
