Explanation:
Claire describes her mood as decent though lately she feels more overwhelmed than passionate about her work. Claire used to love to read, but she attributes her poor eyesight for not enjoying that activity lately. Becoming tearful, Claire opens up about having spent so much energy being a mother that she’s fearful what her role will be when her kids go to college. Furthermore, her mother’s health is declining and her she worries her husband, who has been spending a lot of time away from home, will leave her. Claire is able to sleep thanks to taking a pill before bed. During the day, she is lacking in energy because her activity level is minimal.

Claire’s mom has been critical of her use of Lortabs and drinking alcohol, which Claire believes helps her to hold everything together. By the end of the interview, Claire says she’s tired of letting her family down.

A. All short plants are homozygous for that trait
Explanation:
Although there is no visible punnet square but the question is very straightforward. The gene involved here is that coding for height in pea plants. The tall allele (T) is dominant over the short allele (t) i.e. the allele for tallness will always mask the expression of the short allele in the gene.
Due to this principle of dominance, the trait for tallness can either be homozygous, TT (same allele for tallness) or heterozygous, TT (different alleles resulting from the combination of tallness allele and shortness allele). Note that, this heterozygous state is possible because of the dominance the tallness allele (T) has over the shortness allele (t).
However, the recessive trait which is shortness can only be expressed in a homozygous state i.e. when the allele for shortness are the same in the gene i.e. tt
