Answer:

Option B, incomplete dominance

Step-by-step explanation:

In incomplete dominance, the two alleles that pair up to express a trait restricts the sole expression of characteristics associated with individual allele. Thus the offspring’s produced have completely different characteristics/trait as compared to the paired parent's allele’s characteristics/trait.

Here in this case neither the blue nor the yellow color of the flower expresses themselves completely thereby producing entirely different color flowers i.e green flowers.

A very common example of incomplete dominance is production of pink flowers when white and red flowers are crossed.
