The genotype for the height of an organism is written as Tt. What conclusion may be drawn?
The genotype for the height of an organism is written as Tt. What conclusion may be drawn?
Explanation
The genotype Tt represents two different alleles of the same gene:
- T = dominant allele (e.g., tall)
- t = recessive allele (e.g., short)
This means the organism is heterozygous for the height gene — it has two different alleles (T and t) of one gene.
