Answer:

Bb and Bb

Explanation:

Let B be the allele of a black color;  &

Let b be the allele of a white color

Allele B is dominant over allele b, and as such it masks the expression of allele b

If we have a cross between two heterozygous individuals

i.e Bb × Bb

we have:

               B                b

B              BB             Bb

b              Bb              bb

From above, Phenotypically;

we have the following offspring:

BB  ;   one normal black color

2 Bb:  two heterozygous for black color

bb : one white color

The color ratio is in the ratio of 3 black :1 white  which is synonymous to 10 black : 3 white

So; we can therefore conclude that the genotype of the parents are :

Bb and Bb

Independent variable can be defined as a variable which can be changed or manipulated in an experimental set up to record and observe it's effect on the dependent variable. A dependent variable is a variable which is dependent on the independent variable. The outcome of the dependent variable is the result of the experiment. A controlled variable is a variable which does not change in a reaction, and kept as a constant.

1. Here, in the given situation, the amount of water is an independent variable, as it can be manipulated or change in an experiment and it's impact on the growth of plant, which is a dependent variable needs to be observed.

2.Here, in the given, situation, the type of plant is a constant or control variable, as it is irrespective of the changes that occur in the dependent variable with respect to the independent variable.
