In a plant, red fruit (R) is dominant over yellow fruit (r) and tallness (T) is dominant over shortness (t). If a plant with RRTt genotype is crossed with a plant that is rrtt:

1. 50% will be tall with red fruit

2. 75% will be tall with red fruit

3. All the offspring will be tall with red fruit

4. 25% will be tall with red fruit

2. All the progenies

3. 50% of the progenies

4. 1/3 of the progenies
