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 person’s appearance–height, hair color, skin color, and eye color–is determined by genes. Other characteristics affected by heredity are: Likelihood of getting certain diseases. Mental abilities.

Detailed explanation-3: -The term “phenotype” refers to the observable physical properties of an organism; these include the organism’s appearance, development, and behavior. An organism’s phenotype is determined by its genotype, which is the set of genes the organism carries, as well as by environmental influences upon these genes.

Detailed explanation-4: -phenotype, all the observable characteristics of an organism that result from the interaction of its genotype (total genetic inheritance) with the environment. Examples of observable characteristics include behaviour, biochemical properties, colour, shape, and size.

Detailed explanation-5: -Alleles produce phenotypes (or physical versions of a trait) that are either dominant or recessive. The dominance or recessivity associated with a particular allele is the result of masking, by which a dominant phenotype hides a recessive phenotype.
