Solution

The correct option is B 4/16
As we know that tallness (T) is dominant over dwarfism (t) and red colour (R) is dominant over white (r) flower colour.
Parent Generation, P1: TTRR x ttrr
F1 generation : TtRr (tall plant, red flower)
P2 generation : TtRr x TtRr

Ttrr

Thus, dwarf progeny in F2 generation= 4/16; C is correct answer.
