Due to the cross between TTRr × ttrr the resultant progenies showed how many percent plants tall, red flowered:

  1. 50%
  2. 100%
  3. 75%
  4. 25%

Answer

(1) 50%

Solution

Consider each gene separately (independent assortment).

Height: TT tt ⇒ all Tt ⇒ tall = 1

Flower colour: Rr rr ⇒ 12 Rr (red) : 12 rr (white) ⇒ red = 12

∴ Tall, red-flowered plants = 1 12 = 12 = 50\%
