Final Answer : A, Explanation :  In this cross, the homozygous individual (BB) can only pass on the B allele, and the heterozygous individual (Bb) can pass on either the B or b allele. This results in offspring that can be either BB (if they inherit the B allele from both parents) or Bb (if they inherit the B allele from the homozygous parent and the b allele from the heterozygous parent).

B) BB, Bb, and bb
C) BB only
