The question is about Mendelian genetics, specifically the concept of dominance in traits. In this case, the trait is seed color in pea plants, where yellow seeds (T) are dominant over other colors. The scientist's conclusion that both parent plants have the genotype TT is based on the assumption that all offspring will have yellow seeds. However, this conclusion is flawed because it does not consider other possible genotypes that could result in yellow seeds. For example, if one parent has the genotype TT and the other has the genotype Tt, the offspring could still have yellow seeds, but the scientist's conclusion would be incorrect. Therefore, the statement that best explains the flaw in the scientist's conclusion is that there is not enough data because the same results would occur if parents were TT x TT.
