When taking two alles as A and a. They are AA and Aa
Codominant
two capital or two lowercase letters in the GENOTYPE (ex: TT or tt) it's also called HOMOZYGOUS.
Phenotype and genotype traits don't always have to be the same. Phenotype is the physical characteristics and genotype is the genetic makeup. For example a pea plant can have the genotype of TT and look tall while another plant can have a genotype of Tt and also look tall (T= dominant trait; t= recessive trait.)
Not entirely sure what you meant on that one, but I'll try and answer it. Genes have a genotype and a phenotype. (spelling?) A genotype is the "official label for the gene" (i.e. Tt, TT, tt) and phenotype descibes the appearance (i.e. homozygous tall, heterozygous tall, heterozygous short...) Hope this helps!
Nope! TT is the dominant phenotype (what ever it may be) and tt is the recessive phenotype (what ever that may be).So say T is the allele for Tall plants, t is the allele for short plants. TT would be show the tall phenotype while tt would show the short phenotype. If the genotype was Tt, the phenotype would be tall as well because the T is dominant and masks the phenotype of t (short plants).
Codiminant principle suggests that a plant with the genotype Tt will display a tall phenotype.

Tall=TT Short=tt
OK first, you don't say tT. The dominant allele is always put first. So this would actually be TT Tt Tt and tt. The only way a recessive trait will show is if the dominant trait isn't present. Therefore 3 will be tall and one will be short. BTW: TT isn't an example of an allele. It's actually the genotype. T is an example of an allele. Tallness is a genetic trait, but T is not. A genetic trait is simply a title that includes whatever phenotype may become apparent. A phenotype is the trait that shows up. If a person's genotype is TT or Tt, their phenotype will be tall. If a person's genotype is tt, then their phenotype will be short.
Tt X Tt Statistically, 1 TT Homozygous dominant, expresses T. 2 Tt Heterozygous dominant, expresses T. 1 tt Homozygous recessive, expresses t.
