Phenotype is the physical appearance of the organism, which is depicted by the genes. The genetic makeup of the organism is termed as genotype. Both genotype and phenotype are inter-dependent on each other. If the genotype changes, phenotype will change accordingly.
Gene is present in various forms and these forms are termed as alleles. Alleles are classified as dominant and recessive. When the phenotype of the organism is translated into the genotype, alleles are used.
Here, genotype of the tall plant could be either TT or Tt.
<u>Genotype of short plant will be tt </u>only. This is because short height is a recessive trait. It will be visible only when it is present in homozygous state, as in “tt”.
which root does not refer to an endocrine gland?

Producers rely on light because that is what they use to "produce" food. Consumers, however, also rely on light, because first of all they need to see, and second of all, the light fuels growth of producers, which in turn, when consumers eat the producers, promote growth of other consumers.
Great question :)
The tendency to maintain a stable, relatively constant internal environment is called homeostasis. The body maintains homeostasis for many factors in addition to temperature. For instance, the concentration of various ions in your blood must be kept steady, along with pH and the concentration of glucose.
