Answer:

The correct option is C)10

The punnet square for the parent cross is shown below:

       t       t

T      Tt    Tt

T      Tt     Tt

The punnet square for the test cross is shown below

         t         t

T       Tt       Tt

t         tt        tt

As 50% of the offsprings will be dominant. Hence, out of 20, 10 will be tall.
