    Hey since Rr and RR are crossed so we will have to make table for finding out the F1 generation.

    R. r

    R. RR. Rr

    R. RR. Rr

    So we find that all the plants in F1 generation will have round seeds as R is the dominant feature.

    Now talking about genotype so genotype means based on the genes. So genotype will be all round seeds i.e. R:r = 4:0

    Phenotype means based on the physical characters so Round:wrinkled is also equal to 4:0.
