Answer:

1:2:1

Step-by-step explanation:

It describes the number of times a genotype would appear in the offspring after a test cross. For example, a test cross between two organisms with the same genotype, Rr, for a heterozygous dominant trait will result in offspring with genotypes: RR, Rr, and rr. In this example, the predicted genotypic ratio is 1:2:1.
