Round seed coat is dominant over wrinkled seed coat and yellow colour of cotyledon is dominant over the green colour.
Mendel crossed a pure breeding garden pea plant producing round and yellow seeds with a pure breeding garden pea plant producing wrinkled and green seeds.
Phenotype of Round seed coat Wrinkled seed coat

Round seed coat and yellow cotyledons=9
Wrinkled seed coat and yellow cotyledons=3
Round seed coat and green cotyledons=3
Wrinkled seed coat and green cotyledons=1
