at least one dominant allele:
The answer above ^ is WRONG: The notation TT means that the chromosomes that carry alleles for a certain characteristics both have a dominant gene,which means TT is a two dominant alleles because each T is one dominant allele. SHORTER IS: 2 DOMINANT ALLELES.

The symbol Tt represents a heterozygous genotype for a specific gene in genetics. It indicates that an individual has inherited two different alleles for a particular trait, with one allele being dominant (T) and one allele being recessive (t). This genotype results in a phenotype that expresses the dominant trait.
Tt usually is the genes for height or being tall that an organism has. A high case T is dominant and a lower case t is ressesive. In genetics, any letter that is capitalized is always dominant and a letter that is lower case is always ressesive
"Tt" would mean that x organism was heterozygous for a dominant allele ("T") on x locus.
tt in genetics is representing a trait that is homozygous recessive. This is shown through the lower case t's and them both being the same.

The possible offspring outcomes of this cross would be 50% Tt (heterozygous) and 50% tt (homozygous recessive).
The offspring will have a 25% chance of being TT (homozygous dominant), a 50% chance of being Tt (heterozygous), and a 25% chance of being tt (homozygous recessive). This follows Mendel's law of segregation where alleles for a trait separate during gamete formation.
TT, Tt, and tt are genotypes that represent combinations of alleles for a specific gene. In this case, T represents the dominant allele and t represents the recessive allele. TT represents a homozygous dominant genotype, Tt represents a heterozygous genotype, and tt represents a homozygous recessive genotype.
A specialist in genetics is called a geneticist. Geneticists study genes, heredity, and genetic variation to understand how genetic factors influence health, disease, and traits in organisms.
