Solution
The correct option is D 1:1 F1 or first filial or progeny is the generation of hybrids produced from across between the genetically different individuals called parents. A cross between homozygous and heterozygous parents for a single locus will produce 1: 1 ratio of phenotypic features in F1 generation.
