Solution

The correct option is B Pink
A genetic cross of inbred Antirrhinum majus with red flowers with inbred Antirrhinum majus with white flowers resulted in F1 hybrid offspring that all had pink flowers. When the F1 plants were self-pollinated, the resulting F2 generation plants had a phenotypic ratio of 1 red: 2 pink: 1 white.
So, the correct answer is option B.
