In fruit flies, “straight wings” (S) is dominant over “curly wings” (s), and gray body color (G) is dominant over black body color (g). A straight-winged female with gray body color was mated with a straight-winged male with black body color and the following ratios of offspring resulted. The experiment was conducted at 25°C.
Ratio
Phenotype
3/8
straight-winged; gray body color
3/8
straight-winged; black body color
1/8
curly-winged; gray body color
1/8
curly-winged; black body color
The data above suggest that the genotype of the male parent is
(A) SsGg
(B) SSGg
(C) ssgg
(D) Ssgg
(E) ssGg

I disagree

In fruit flies, "straight wings" (S) is dominant over "curly wings" (s), and gray body color (G) is dominant over black body color (g). A straight-winged female with gray body color was mated with a straight-winged male with black body color and the following ratios of offspring resulted. The experiment was conducted at 25°C.

Ratio Phenotype
3/8 straight-winged; gray body color
3/8 straight-winged; black body color
1/8 curly-winged; gray body color
1/8 curly-winged; black body color
The data above suggest that the genotype of the male parent is

For this it's Ssgg
