Yes, this is false. It's genotype that determines phenotype. e.g. If you have the dominant gene for brown eyes and the recessive gene for blue eyes (genotype) you will have brown eyes (phenotype)
What else can I help you with?
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.
Can you accurately determine an organisms genotype by observing it's phenotype?
No, genotype actually determines phenotype.
Which is the FALSE statement a Phenotype determines genotype b Combination of alleles are known as genotype c A gamete will only receive one allele or another from a pair?
The FALSE statement is "A phenotype determines genotype." In reality, it is the genotype that determines the phenotype, as the genetic information (allele combinations) present in an individual's DNA influences their observable traits.
Which false phenotype determines gentotype?
The concept you're referring to seems to involve the relationship between phenotype and genotype. However, it's important to clarify that phenotype (the observable traits of an organism) is influenced by genotype (the genetic makeup), not the other way around. A "false phenotype" could imply a misleading or incorrectly interpreted observable trait that does not accurately reflect the underlying genotype. Ultimately, while phenotypes can provide insights into genotypes, they do not determine them.
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.
Why is it sometimes impossible to determine the genotype of an organism that has a dominant phenotype?
it is impossible because the phenotype and genotype are different this is out of chapter 10 in the biology book on page 336
What are an individual's observable traits called?
genotype or phenotype
How do you use genotype and phenotype in a sentence?
The genotype of an organism refers to its genetic makeup, while its phenotype relates to its observable traits. For example, a plant with the genotype for tall height may exhibit a phenotype of actually being tall in stature.
How do you get the genotype of the phenotype?
It isn't possible to find a phenotype. This is because the phenotype is the expression of the genotype. The genotype contains the genetic information for the phenotype, but does not show any physical information. The phenotype expresses the genotype in a physical and physiological way, so that what you actually see, is the phenotype. Take blood type for example: Genotypically it is just the genetic code of AGCTCTAGTCC (lets say), but Phenotypically it is Type A In short, the phenotype is what you see and the genotype is coding for it.
The Phenotype determines genotype?
Phenotype does not determine genotype. Actually a genotype includes an organisms entire hereditary information. A phenotype is simply the organisms actual observed properties including appearance, development and behavior.
True or false The actual gene makeup of an organism is its phenotype?
False. The actual gene makeup of an organism is its genotype, while its phenotype refers to its observable physical and biochemical characteristics.
Genotype refers to an individuals physical characteristics and phenotype refers to an individuals genetic makeup?
false
