In the dihybrid cross Punnett square, an offspring with genotype RrYy could result from which gamete combination(s)?

Question
In the dihybrid cross Punnett square, an offspring with genotype RrYy could result from which gamete combination(s)?
Only RY (from one parent) with ry (from the other)
Multiple different combinations, such as RY+ry, Ry+rY, and others that yield RrYy
Only rY with Ry
No combination can yield RrYy
Answer
Multiple different combinations, such as RY+ry, Ry+rY, and others that yield RrYy
Detailed Explanation
An RrYy genotype can arise from several different gamete pairings (e.g., RY x ry, or Ry x rY), all of which combine to give one R, one r, one Y, and one y allele.
