Detailed explanation-1: -Within an individual organism, the specific combination of alleles for a gene is known as the genotype of the organism, and (as mentioned above) the physical trait associated with that genotype is called the phenotype of the organism.
Detailed explanation-2: -An organism’s phenotype is determined by its genotype. Genotype is the set of genes that the organism carries. The phenotype is the total characteristics displayed by an organism that results from the expression of the genes of an organism as well as the influence of environmental factors and random variation.
Detailed explanation-3: -Expression of a particular trait is termed as phenotype and it is dependent on many factors. A particular trait may become recessive if it gets combined with a dominant trait. Moreover, the survival of a particular trait also depends on the fact whether the trait passes the natural selection.
