Answer: D) Round

Step-by-step explanation:

Phenotype is what the plant looks like, so with a genotype of Rr, the plant would be round. R (round) is dominant over r (wrinkled). The plant is heterozygous round.

You can't do a Punnett square because you don't know the genotypes of the parent plants.
