Vlhybrid punnet squares

In tomatoes, tall vines (T) are dominant to dwarf vines (t), and red fruit (R) is dominant to yellow fruit (r).

A farmer mates a homozygous tall, red tomato plant (TTRR) with a heterozygous tall, red tomato plant (TtRr).

What is the percent chance that the offspring will be dwarf plants with yellow fruit?

Explanation:

Without having to do a punnett square, you need two lowercase letters to have a recessive trait, from the available parents, you only have one lowercase letter for both traits, so you won't be able to have any recessive traits so you will have a 0% chance of having a dwarf plant with yellow plants.
