Answer:

Expected outcome: HH, Hh, Hh, and hh

The phenotypic ratio of the offsprings will be 3 hairy stems : 1 hairless stem

According to this question, if two tomato plants that are heterozygous for hairy stems (Hh) are crossed, the following gametes will be produced by each parent: H and h. Using these gametes in a punnet square, the following proportion of offsprings will be produced:

HH, Hh, Hh, and hh
