Answer:

Because the F1 plants all had a lowercase a/short plant allele, there was a 25% chance that two plants would contribute it to their offspring and they both did sometimes to make a aa offpsring.

Explanation:

All the F1 plants were heterozygous, so when they were crossed, the resulting genotypic ratio was 1 AA : 2 Aa : 1 aa. As you can see, this is the first time since the parent generation that there is a aa genotype and short plant phenotype, so that's why short plants reappeared.

The reason why we were unable to read the lab manual through the tubes containing isotonic and hypertonic solution is because the cells in those solutions remained intact, causing the solutions to be opaque, in the tonicity of red blood cells activity. The reason why we can't read the lab manual is because the cells in the solutions remained intact.
