No, genotype actually determines phenotype.
What else can I help you with?
When can you accurately determine a person's genotype from their phenotype?
Yes you can accurately determine an organisms genotype by observing it's phenotype, however some phenotypic traits resulting from homozygous or heterozygous combinations of alleles, may make the prediction impossible.
Is it easier to analyze genotype by observing phenotype in organisms with complete dominance or in organisms with incomplete dominance?
It is easier to analyze genotype by observing phenotype in organisms with incomplete dominance (also known as codominance), because in incomplete dominance the individual will show a specific phenotype for each situation, whether it is homozygous dominant, heterozygous, or homozygous recessive. For example, in flowers, such as the ones that Mendel studied, a homozygous dominant flower will be red, a homozygous recessive flower will be white, and a heterozygous flower will be pink. In complete dominance, a heterozygous will only express the dominant phenotype, as opposed to incomplete dominance, in which a heterozygous individual will express a phenotype that is representative of both of the dominant and recessive traits. Because heterozygous individuals in complete dominance express the dominant phenotype, it is hard to determine whether the genotype is homozygous dominant or heterozygous for the trait. Hope this helps!
What can usually be determined by observing an organism?
Phenotype
How does an organism's genotype determine its phenotype?
By transcribing the code, which is unique to each organism and general to that species, that builds the proteins that express the phenotype; the physiological and behavioral traits of organisms.
What is the organism physical apperance is?
Do you mean the phenotype?The phenotype is not only the organisms appearance but also the organisms behavior.
How do you determine the genotype and phenotype of an organism?
To determine the genotype of an organism, you analyze its genetic makeup by examining its DNA through techniques like DNA sequencing or genetic testing. The phenotype of an organism, on the other hand, is determined by observing its physical characteristics and traits, which are influenced by both genetic and environmental factors.
An organisms appearance is known as?
phenotype
What is what is an organisms outward appearance?
The phenotype.
Does phenotype determine genotype?
It is a false statement that "phenotype determines genotype". In fact, it is the opposite. A genotype is the genetics or "instructions" that determine the phenotype. The phenotype is the actual appearance, ex: blue eyes, that is created by a given genotype.
What doE phenotype?

What is an organisms way its genotype is expressed?
Phenotype
Determines an organisms phenotype?
