Refer to the following information to answer the questions below.

At the same time, a second gene, N, determines whether or not cacti have spines. Homozygous recessive nn cacti have no spines at all.
-If doubly heterozygous SsNn cacti were allowed to self-pollinate, the F₂ would segregate in which of the following ratios?
A) 3 sharp-spined:1 spineless
B) 1 sharp-spined:2 dull-spined:1 spineless
C) 1 sharp-spined:1 dull-spined:1 spineless
D) 1 sharp-spined:1 dull-spined
E) 9 sharp-spined:3 dull-spined:4 spineless
