The genotype ratio is 1:2:1 (1 homozygous dominant, 2 heterozygous, 1 homozygous recessive) and the phenotype ratio is 3:1 (3 individuals showing the dominant trait, 1 individual showing the recessive trait).
No. Parents with the dominant phenotype might be heterozygous in their genotype. This means they could carry both the dominant and recessive allele for a trait. So they could both pass the recessive allele to an offspring, who would then have the homozygous recessive genotype and recessive phenotype.
Genotype: AA - The phenotype is homozygous dominant, exhibiting the dominant trait. Genotype: Aa - The phenotype is heterozygous, exhibiting the dominant trait. Genotype: aa - The phenotype is homozygous recessive, exhibiting the recessive trait.
If 50% of the offspring show the dominant phenotype and 50% show the recessive phenotype, it is likely that one parent is heterozygous (Aa) for the trait and the other parent is homozygous recessive (aa). This would result in a 1:1 ratio of offspring showing each phenotype.
The expected phenotype ratio of seed color in the offspring of an F1 x F1 cross is 3:1. This is because the F1 generation is heterozygous for the trait, resulting in a 3:1 ratio of dominant to recessive phenotypes in the offspring.
alleles are variations of genes
If both parents have the same phenotype, but the offspring did not share that phenotype, then it is likely that the parents have a dominant phenotype, but the offspring has a recessive phenotype, which means that the offpring's genotype would be homozygous recessive, and it's parents' genotypes would be heterozygous. For example, the parents may both have the genotype Bb, which gives them black fur. Approximately 25% of their offspring should have the genotype bb, which gives them the phenotype of white fur.

The genotype of the offspring that had the same phenotype as the parents is rr or wrinkled. The phenotype for the seed shape of both parent plants is round.
Genotype: AA - The phenotype is homozygous dominant, exhibiting the dominant trait. Genotype: Aa - The phenotype is heterozygous, exhibiting the dominant trait. Genotype: aa - The phenotype is homozygous recessive, exhibiting the recessive trait.

The parents can pass on only the alleles of their genotypes to their offspring. Therefore, the offspring genotypes and phenotypes are dependent solely upon the alleles inherited from the parents.
The question needs more detail..... F1 offspring are the first generation of children from a a specific set of parents. Their genotype/phenotype would depend on that of the parents.
