What is the genotype of the offspring that do not share the parents phenotype?
Genotype is the coded for traitPhenotype is the visible characteristicSo in the case where both parents had heterozygous dominant Brown eyes (Bb - big B for brown, dominant gene; little b for blue recessive gene); it is possible for the child to have blue eyes, by being homozygous recessive (bb).However this is an educated guess, as your question does not make sense.
How do you get the genotype of the phenotype?
In order to determine the phenotype of the original organism observe any physical traits / characteristics Lookup the following concepts: punnet square, homozygous recessive/dominant. Draw the punnet square Determine the crossing Determine the dominant traits Determine the phenotype
What an organism looks like as a result of its genes?
For the sake of simplicity the discussion here will be of mendellian genetics. The way an animal looks (phenotype) may only represent a portion of it's genotype since dominant traits mask the expression of recessive ones. Behavior is not explained by genetics in many cases...the more complex the organism the more likely behavioral nuance is affected by elements beyond genetics.
What does a punett square show?
The chance of a particular trait being inherited. For each trait there are several alleles, some are dominant and others recessive, for example brown eyes are dominant over blue. The recessive phenotype can only have a genotype with both recessive alleles eg. bb The dominant phenotype can have a genotype with both dominant alleles eg. BB or one of each eg. Bb A punnet square shows the likelihood of a phenotype being inherited from given genotypes, alleles etc... BB and Bb makes BB BB Bb Bb All offspring will have the dominant phenotype (BB or Bb) eg. brown eyes Bb and Bb makes BB Bb Bb bb One in four of the offspring will have the recessive phenotype (bb) eg. blue eyes
How its possible two individuals to have to the same phenotype but different genotype for a trait?
it is possible beccause you dont always need both
Is it possible to determine the genotype of a plant with a dominant phenotype the trait?
NO, because a dominant phenotype could either be homozygous or a heterozygous.so unless you are sure about the genotype of parents we can't determine it...but we can determine the genotype of a person showing reccessive phenotype, as a recessive trait always expresses itself in a homozygous condition..Read more: Is_it_possible_to_determine_the_genotype_of_a_person_showing_a_dominant_phenotype

The unknown genotype of an individual with a dominant phenotype can be determined using?
This question is worded weird, because if someone had a dominant phenotype, as in Brown eyes dominant, than they would be BB or Bb. The exact genotype would need to have a key to what one of their parents' genotype was. Example: If a man with brown eyes (dominant) had a mom with blue eyes (recessive) then what would the man's genotype be? the answer would be Bb because that means that the man's dad would have BB and mom would be bb and when using punnent square, his genotype is Bb (only possible genotype is Bb)
How is it possible that you would know your phenotype and not your genotype?
You just know

What is phenotype of Rr?
It is Dominant. R is the dominant and r is the recessive. The dominate trait shadows the recessive trait. It is Dominant. R is the dominant and r is the recessive. The dominate trait shadows the recessive trait. Is dominant. dominant can be RR or Rr. but when its recessive its rr.

A homozygous dominant black bear is mated with a recessive brown bear what phenotype will probably result in the offspring of the two bears?
Phenotype: Black Bear x Brown Bear Genotype: BB x bb Possible gametes: B B b b Possible B B crosses: b Bb Bb b Bb Bb Phenotype of offspring: Only Black bears
Can 2 organisms have different genotypes but the same phenotype?
No. It is possible for the reverse to be true, two organisms can have the same phenotype but a different genotype. This is because the phenotype is what you will see on the outside whereas the genotype is the combination of alleles and since this determines the phenotype, two organisms with the same genotype will have the same phenotype. So, basically, no. Actually 2 organisms can certainly have different phenotypes with the same genotype--this refers to the concept of penetrance. Some people can have the gene for a condition but never show symptoms. An excellent example of this is the disease neurofibromatosis. This disease has very variable penetrance in which a child of an affected parent may show no signs of the disease, but then have a child with a severe form.
