Answer:

A. All are tall and purple

Explanation:

When you set up a punnet square, all of the results would be TtPp.

When a dominant trait is present, it preceeds over the recessive trait. (Also it depends on what genotypes are given. Ex: In flowers if they gave RR shows red, Rw shows pink, and ww shows white, but that's not the case here given that there are only 2 genotypes).

So to break it down:

Tt -> tall plant

Pp -> purple plant

so they are all tall and purple.
