Detailed Solution

A. As T is dominant over t. Therefore to produce all tall plants from a cross of tall plant with a dwarf plant is only possible when the tall plant is homozygous for the dominant allele. Therefore, the genotype should be TT × tt.
B) As T is dominant over t. Therefore to produce 3 tall plants and 1 dwarf plant from a cross of tall plant with another tall plant is only possible when the tall plant is homozygous for the dominant allele. Therefore, the genotype should be Tt × Tt.
