The correct Answer is:
To determine which genotype represents a heterozygous condition, we need to understand the definitions of homozygous and heterozygous genotypes. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Genotypes**: A genotype consists of two alleles for a particular gene. These alleles can be either the same (homozygous) or different (heterozygous). 2. **Identify Homozygous Condition**: - Homozygous dominant: Both alleles are dominant (e.g., TT). - Homozygous recessive: Both alleles are recessive (e.g., tt). 3. **Identify Heterozygous Condition**: - Heterozygous: One allele is dominant and the other is recessive (e.g., Tt). 4. **Analyze the Given Options**: - **Option A: TT** - Both alleles are dominant (homozygous dominant). - **Option B: tt** - Both alleles are recessive (homozygous recessive). - **Option C: Tt** - One allele is dominant and the other is recessive (heterozygous). - **Option D: RR** - Both alleles are dominant (homozygous dominant). 5. **Conclusion**: The only genotype that represents a heterozygous condition is **Option C: Tt**. ### Final Answer: The genotype that represents a heterozygous condition is **Tt**. ---
