Solution
The correct option is A Test cross Test cross involves the breeding of an individual with a phenotypically recessive individual, in order to determine the zygosity of the forms by analyzing proportions of offspring phenotypes. Those that are heterozygous have one dominant and one recessive allele. Zygosity can either be Heterozygous or Homozygous.
