Answer:

A. HH - tall head, Hh - tall head, hh - short head

B. 75% or 3/4

C. 25% or 1/4

Explanation:

Paul and Penelope are heterozygous for their tall head, which means they have one dominant and one recessive allele. So, their genotype is Hh.

When crossed, the results are 1 HH - h0m0zygous dominant tall head, 2 Hh - heterozygous tall head, and 1 hh - h0m0zygous recessive short head.

So, there is a 75% of a child with a tall head and a 25% chance of a child with a short head.

Hope that helps.
