The genotype for the height of an organism is written as Tt. What conclusion may be drawn?

Answer: There are at least two different alleles of the gene for height
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.
