The main reason that most farmers use stem cuttings rather than just planting a seed is that a tree's genetic variation will occur. The seeds of many fruit trees tend to vary differently from the parent, because seeds themselves are produced by sexual reproduction (i.e they receive genes from a male and female to form). As they are a cross from two sets of genes, many fruit trees are not “true to seed”. Their seeds will produce a generally different variety of tree from the parent. When using stem cuttings, it's almost like a cloning process.
I hope you meant, a cross between BbPp and BbPp, else for bbpp x bbpp, all the progeny will be bbpp.
We need to work out a Punnett square to determine the genotypes resulting from the cross between BbPp and BbPp. The dyhybrid cross results in 16 different genotypes, of which a few have the same phenotypes.
It can be seen that there are 4 different kinds of phenotypes present, in the ratio 9:3:3:1.
Mendel's law of segregation.
Answer:
A

If there are more predators than prey, the ecosystem will fall and the predators will die of starvation or cannibalism
