The question is asking to choose the following process could the breeder use to determine if Sam is the father of the pups and in my further research and in my own understanding, I would say that the answer would be Y-Chromosome Analysis. I hope you are satisfied with my answer and feel free to ask for more 

The genetical analysis can be done through various methods to determine the paternity root. The Y-chromosome analysis can be used to determine if Sam is the father of the pups. Thus, option D is correct.

What is Y-chromosome analysis?

The Y-chromosome analysis is the technique used to determine the paternity relationship of the male organism to its offspring. It is generally done to connect the relationship between two male species.

It is a genealogical test of the genetic material that identifies and traces the ancestry of the patrilineal lineage. It traces the Y chromosome as unlike females, the male exclusively has the Y chromosomes.

The Y-chromosome includes the short tandem repeat polymorphisms sequences that can only be passed from a father to a son.

Therefore, option D. the paternity test for Sam and his pups can be done by Y-chromosome analysis.
