The answer is C) 9:3:3:1

This looks like a dihybrid cross where the expected phenotypic ratio is 9:3:3:1. However, in nature, the numbers cannot be absolut. Let's check it out:
242 purple wrinkled
84 purple smooth
70 yellow wrinkled
24 yellow smooth

Divide all by the smallest number:
242 purple wrinkled / 24
84 purple smooth / 24
70 yellow wrinkled / 24
24 yellow smooth / 24

We have 
10.1 purple wrinkled which is near to 9
3.5 purple smooth which is near to 3
2.9 yellow wrinkled which is near to 3
1 yellow smooth

natulia [17]

The correct answer is D. They have two successive sets of teeth including milk teeth and permanent adult teeth

Explanation:

In biology, a diphyodont is an animal that has two different sets of teeth, this often means the animal has a set of baby teeth that are later replaced by permanent teeth, this occurs in most mammals including humans. Additionally, diphyodont differ from other types of animals that have either only one set of teeth (monophyodonts), for example, toothed whales or change their teeth permanently (polyphyodont), for example, crocodiles. Thus, mammals are diphyodont because "they have two successive sets of teeth including milk teeth and permanent adult teeth".
