Solution
If B is dominant over b, a cross between a homozygous female (bb) and a heterozygous male (Bb). The male will produce two types of gametes, B and b, while the female will produce only one kind of gamete, b. The genotypic and phenotypic ratio in the progenies of F1 generation will be same i.e., 1:1.
