Solution

The correct option is B 100
The frequency of recombination in F1 generation is 100% between a wild-type dominant and recessive individual in a dihybrid cross(unless the genes are not linked.)
  • B-Brown body(wild type)
  • b-Yellow body
  • R-Red eyes(wild type)
  • r-white eyes
BBRR x bbrr
will always result in the recombinant BbRr.
So, the correct option is '100%'.
