Answer and Explanation:

The genotype would be a Upper case and a lower case letter (depends on what letters you are using).

If you can choose, I would do Bb.

Answer:

Bb

Step-by-step explanation:

Heterozygous means different alleles. Since for color, there are, in this situation, 2 alleles, B and b, let's say. B being black dominant, and b being black recessive, or white, let's say. For the rabbit to be black, it needs only one dominant allele. Since the rabbit is heterozygous, the genotype is Bb. I hope I helped, and sorry if this was confusing!
