To determine the phenotype for each genotype regarding seed shape where smooth (S) is dominant to wrinkled (s), we can analyze the given genotypes:

  1. SS (homozygous dominant): The phenotype is smooth seed shape.

  2. Ss (heterozygous): The phenotype is also smooth seed shape, since the dominant allele (S) masks the effect of the recessive allele (s).

  3. ss (homozygous recessive): The phenotype is wrinkled seed shape.

So, filling in the blanks:

  • SS: smooth seed shape
  • Ss: smooth seed shape
  • ss: wrinkled seed shape
