Answer: The correct answer is Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

An offspring gets the gene which is formed by the intermixing of the two parents.

It is given that the two parents have the same gene which is "GG". As, we can see there is no dominant trait in the parents gene.

Hence, the offspring will also inherit the same gene type which is "GG".

Therefore, the correct answer is option C.

The option would be C, as there is no way for a recessive gene to happen, if both parents are dominant.
