Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -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-3: -An organism’s genotype is the set of genes that it carries. An organism’s phenotype is all of its observable characteristics-which are influenced both by its genotype and by the environment.
Detailed explanation-4: -With one locus and additive effects we have three phenotypic classes: AA, Aa and aa.
Detailed explanation-5: -Phenotype refers to the physical traits that are observed in an organism which are the outcome of the expression of the genes of an individual. The genotype determines the phenotype of an individual.
