Use the table to answer the question.
the genotypes of three pea plants for the allele for height. Which prediction about the three plants is the most reasonable?
Plant A Plant B Plant C
tt TT Tt
Plant C will be the shortest.
Plant B and Plant C will have similar heights.
Plant A and Plant C will have similar heights.
Plant A will be the tallest.
the genotypes of three pea plants for the allele for height. Which prediction about the three plants is the most reasonable?
Plant A Plant B Plant C
tt TT Tt
Plant C will be the shortest.
Plant B and Plant C will have similar heights.
Plant A and Plant C will have similar heights.
Plant A will be the tallest.
Based on the genotypes provided, Plant A has the genotype tt which corresponds to the homozygous recessive allele for height. Therefore, it is most reasonable to predict that Plant A will be the shortest among the three plants.
