Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Some dogs have erect ears; others have drooping ears. Some dogs bark when following a scent; others are silent. Erect ears and barking are due to dominant alleles located on different chromosomes. A dog homozygous for both dominant traits is mated to a droopy-eared, silent follower. The phenotypic ratio expected in the F1 generation is ____
A
9:3:3:1.
B
100 percent of one phenotype.
C
1:1.
D
1:2:1.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In dogs, phenotype A (erect ears and barking while following a scent) is caused by dominant alleles; phenotype B (droopy ears and silent while following a scent) is caused by recessive alleles.
