Answer:
a) Homozygous
Explanation:
An organism in which the two copies of the gene are identical is called homozygous in that gene. An organism with two different alleles of the genes is called heterozygous.
Answer:
The correct answer would be C) 75% large-toothed and 25% small-toothed.
It can be explained with the help of the law of dominance which states that the dominant allele expresses itself completely over the recessive allele in the heterozygous condition.
So, the genotype TT, as well as Tt, will result in the production of dominant trait or character in the offspring.
Thus, three (1 TT and 2 Tt) out of four offspring would have large teeth and only one offspring (tt) would have small teeth.
Hence, we can conclude that 75% of the offspring will have large teeth and only 25% will have small teeth.

If you take homo sapiens for example (Humans) there are many males and females around the world who are sterile and unable to reproduce, yet you still see the human species flourishing. </span>
