correct. tt will be short.
I am a little confused by the way your question is phrased. If both T and t are for "tallness," then all of the children will be tall.
If T is for normal height and t is for tallness, then only the tt genotype would be tall.
If t is for normal height and T is for tallness, 3/4 of the children will tall. If this is what you meant with your problem, then bobpursley's answer is right.
I hope this will help a little more. Thanks for asking.
