AP BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Phenotype refers to an individual’s observable traits, such as height, eye color and blood type. A person’s phenotype is determined by both their genomic makeup (genotype) and environmental factors.

Detailed explanation-2: -A phenotype is the observable physical and biochemical characteristics of an organism determined in large part by their genes. Examples of phenotypes include traits such as eye color, hair color, height, freckles, and length of fingers.

Detailed explanation-3: -Hair color is a genetic and physiologically complex phenotype, which represents one of the most visible variations within humans and between populations [1].

Detailed explanation-4: -Many physical traits like hair color and texture, eye color, and skin color are determined by the genotypes that parents pass down to their children. In one sense, the term “genotype”-like the term “genome”-refers to the entire set of genes in the cells of an organism.

Detailed explanation-5: -Phenotype: detectable expression of the genotype. Example: hair color, eye colors, weight.
