Detailed explanation-1: -In a broad sense, the term “genotype” refers to the genetic makeup of an organism; in other words, it describes an organism’s complete set of genes. In a more narrow sense, the term can be used to refer to the alleles, or variant forms of a gene, that are carried by an organism.
Detailed explanation-2: -The alleles or variations that an individual carries in a specific gene or genetic region are also referred to as the genotype. A genotype’s two letters stand in for the two alleles. The dominant allele is represented by an uppercase letter, and the recessive allele is represented by a lowercase letter.
Detailed explanation-3: -Genotype is the actual GENE makeup represented by LETTERS. Phenotype is the PHYSICAL appearance of a trait, such as a YELLOW (or BLUE) body color. 3. Give the possible genotypes for each trait based on the information provided in the chart.
Detailed explanation-4: -(JEE-noh-tipe) At its broadest level, genotype includes the entire genetic constitution of an individual. It is often applied more narrowly to the set of alleles present at one or more specific loci.
