Genotype is the specific combination of genes that contribute to a trait that an organism has. (For example, the genes for being tall).Phenotype is the expression of the trait which is partially influenced due to the genotype and partly by the environment (Even if you have the genes for being tall, if you are malnourished you will not grow as tall).
Skin color, in animals color of their hide, for example rabbits.

Blue eyes are a dominant trait.
Trait that is controlled by many genes and is also influenced by the environment.
A multifactorial trait, a polygenic trait commonly influenced by the environment.
Because genes do not account for every trait or characteristic. Some characteristics are influenced by environment.
Genotype is the specific combination of genes that contribute to a trait that an organism has.

Sex-influenced traits are those where the same genotype results in different phenotypes in the sexes. One example of a sex-influenced trait is pattern baldness. If a male is heterozygous for this trait, he would most likely go bald. However, if a female was heterozygous for this trait, she would probably not go bald.
One example of a sexually influenced trait in humans would be haemophilia. The gene responsible for haemophilia is located on the X chromosome, and if a man receives a gene from his mother (men's X chromosomes always come from their mother) that is positive for this trait, he will exhibit haemophilia. Women must have two X chromosomes that are positive for haemophilia in order to exhibit the trait, because it is a recessive gene.
An adaptive trait is one that helps an individual better interact with their environment. Adaptive traits include thumbs in humans for example.

Hi
Height in considered a polygenic trait because your height is influenced by multiple genes.
Psychologists like to use sets of identical twins for studies. If the identical twins turn out more similar than fraternal twins or regular siblings, they conclude that the trait is genetically influenced and hereditary.
