Solution

The correct option is A 100% tall plants
Bolting is a process of treating genetically dwarf plants with gibberellins to convert them into plants of normal height without changing its genotype. It includes changes in day length, the prevalence of high temperatures at particular stages in a plant's growth cycle, and the existence of stresses such as insufficient water or minerals. Due to bolting the dwarf plants gets converted to normal height due to bolting so it gets converted to tall plant.
So, the correct answer is option A.
