All the offspring from the cross illustrated will be heterozygous for the trait.

Monohybrid crossing

Assuming the seed shape allele is represented by the allele A (a).

Homzygous dominant = AA

Homzygous recessive = aa

Crossing AA and aa:

                    AA    x    aa

                   Aa   Aa   Aa   Aa

Thus, all the offspring will be heterozygous for the seed shape trait.
