Solution
Given: GG and Gg are both green pods. This means that G is dominant and g is the recessive allele.
The given Punnet square-
Gg ----> G g
GG
G GG Gg
G GG Gg
The given progeny are GG, GG, Gg, Gg.
Since G is the dominant allele, so all the progenies will have green pod. Hence, 100% of the progenies have green pods.
