Solution

The correct option is B 50
The percentage of heterozygous individuals obtained in F2​ generation from selfing the plants with genotype Rr would be 50.

This is because in F2​ generation the ratio between heterozygous and homozygous is 1:1. It means that it yields two homozygous individuals and 2 heterozygous individuals. Hence the final answer is 50%.

So, the correct answer is option B.
