Answer:

The correct answer would be 1. is always masked.

When homozygous or pure bred tall plant (TT) is crossed with homozygous dwarf or pure bred dwarf plant (tt), the offspring produced will always be heterozygus tall (Tt).

Thus, the recessive trait (t) dwarf is always masked by the dominant trait (T) tallness in F₁ generation.
