Solution

The expected outcome for the F1 generation would be all tall. This is because tallness is a dominant trait, and shortness is a recessive trait. When a true-breeding tall plant (TT) is crossed with a true-breeding short plant (tt), all of the offspring in the F1 generation will have the genotype Tt. Because the T allele is dominant, all of these plants will be tall.
