Based on the genotypes of the plants, the most reasonable prediction is that Plant A will be the tallest. This is because Plant A has the genotype TT, which means it has two copies of the "tall" allele. Plant B has the genotype TT, which is the same as Plant A, so they are also likely to be tall. Plant C has the genotype Tt, which means it has one copy of the "tall" allele and one copy of the "short" allele. Therefore, Plant A is most likely to be the tallest.
