In a Punnett square, if a tall plant (TT) is crossed with a short plant (tt), what is the genotype of the offspring?(1 point) Responses TT TT Tt Tt tt tt Tt or TT

Answer 1

In a Punnett square for a cross between a tall plant (TT) and a short plant (tt), the possible genotype of the offspring can be determined as follows:

The tall plant (TT) can produce gametes with the allele T, while the short plant (tt) can produce gametes with the allele t. When these gametes are combined in a Punnett square, the possible combinations for the offspring are:

• From TT (T from tall plant) combining with tt (t from short plant):
  • T from TT and t from tt = Tt
  • T from TT and t from tt = Tt

So all the offspring will have the genotype Tt.

Therefore, the genotype of the offspring from the cross between TT and tt is Tt.
