it can't be anything with two R's or G's either since not all the offsprings are not all round or all green/ not all wrinkled or all yellow (at this point, we don't know which allele is recessive and which is dominant).

so you're left with RrGg, Rrgg, rrGg, rrgg.

now the parent's phenotype is round yellow and wrinkled yellow. automatically, you should be able to tell the green allele is recessive since it randomly appears in the progeny when none of the parents display green phenotype... since none of the parents are green, that means none of the parents are "gg" since that would give a green phenotype. Ultimately, you're down to two choices: RrGg and rrGg.... since the parents have two different phenotypes, RrGg and rrGg should be your answer if I'm not mistaken.....

although this question is retarded because there's no way, based on the information provided, to know if round is dominant or recessive without the ratios of round in the progenies. hopefully you have at least 2 attempts on this problem and just guess and check lol...I would slap my professor if they gave me this dumb question

i bet round is the dominant allele though if i had to guess...it would help if you uploaded part A of this problem.. maybe there's some extra information there.. i really don't think mastering biology is random enough to give us this little information.
