Answer:

B. DR, Dr, Rd, dr

Step-by-step explanation:

This question involves two genes. Alleles D and R are dominant over alleles d and r. These two genes obey the law of independent assortment as proposed by Gregor Mendel.

Based on the question, a genotype RrDd will produce the following combination of gametes following the process of meiosis:

DR, Dr, dR, dr
