In a population, a gene, Tough, has 2 alleles. "T" confers the dominant phenotype (tough), and individuals with the dominant phenotype produce, on average, 10 offspring. "t" confers the recessive phenotype (brittle), and individuals with the recessive phenotype produce, on average, 100 offspring. Given this:
A. The RELATIVE fitness of individuals with the "Tt" phenotype is higher than that of individuals with the "tt" phenotype.

B. The RELATIVE fitness of individuals with the "TT" phenotype is 10, while the relative fitness of individuals with the "tt" phenotype is 100.

C. The fitness of individuals with the heterozygote's phenotype is lower than that of individuals with the homozygote's phenotype.

D. The fitness of individuals with the "TT" phenotype is 1, while the fitness of individuals with the "tt" phenotype is 0.1.

E. The RELATIVE fitness of individuals with the "Tt" phenotype is 0.1, while the relative fitness of individuals with the "tt" phenotype is 1.
E (The RELATIVE fitness of individuals with the "Tt" phenotype is 0.1, while the relative fitness of individuals with the "tt" phenotype is 1.)
