anonymous · Answer

umm maybe A ? i don't really know :(

igreen · Answer

^^^^^^^^

igreen · Answer

No, actually A is wrong..

k_lynn · Answer

The capital T is a dominant trait.  All of them start with the capital T.  So based on that, which do you think?

k_lynn · Answer

Ya, @iGreen is right, A isn't right.

anonymous · Answer

igreen · Answer

Yes!

k_lynn · Answer

RIght! Great job!

igreen · Answer

D should be the correct answer..all of them will end up being tall.

akonkel · Answer

I would say D??

k_lynn · Answer

http://prntscr.com/5uen56 See how they all start with the capital T? That's a dominant trait. All of them in the Punnett square start with that dominant capital T. Therefore, all the offspring should be tall.
