Biology questions??

9. In humans the allele for free earlobes is dominant to the allele for attached earlobes. The allele for dark hair is dominant to the allele for light hair. Let "E" represent free earlobes and "D" represent dark hair. What is the phenotypic ratio in the offspring resulting from the following cross: EeDd x EeDd?



A. 9 free earlobes and dark hair: 3 free earlobes and light hair: 3 attached earlobes and dark hair: 1 attached earlobes and light hair



B. 4 free earlobes and dark hair: 4 free earlobes and light hair: 4 attached earlobes and dark hair: 4 attached earlobes and light hair



C. 8 free earlobes and dark hair: 8 free earlobes and light hair
