    1 or 100%

    Explanation:

    Let the allele for seed shape be represented by S.

    True breeding spherical shape seeded pea plant will have SS as genotype

    True breeding pea plant with wrinkled seeds will have ss as genotype

    Crossing the two: SS x ss

    Progeny: Ss, Ss, Ss, Ss

    Based on the assumption that spherical shape allele is dominant over wrinkle shape allele, all the F1 offspring will have spherical seeds.

    Hence, the probability is 1 or 100%
