Look at the distribution of male height for instance. The mean of this normal distribution is around 5' 10''. So that means about 69% of men are within one standard deviation of this mean. If you saw a sample of men standing on bleachers it would look exactly as a Bell curve looks; normally distributed.

How do you determine a phenotype when the genotype is different but the phenotype is the same?

You look at the offspring. Offspring of a heterogenous match are going to have different phenotype percentages than those of a homogenous match.

Are phenotype and genotype traits the same?

No, phenotype refers to the physical traits or characteristics that are observable in an organism, while genotype refers to the genetic makeup of an organism, including both the genes that are expressed and those that are not. So, while genotype influences phenotype, they are not the same thing.


What is a analogy on genotype and phenotype?

Genotype is the blueprint (e.g. blue and minivan) Phenotype is what you see (e.g. a blue minivan) Note that even though you have the gene for something does not mean you will get that particular phenotype. The gene may not be activated at all.

What is the phenotype of?

A phenotype is the whole set of the characteristic of an organism, like physical characteristics (colour of skin, presence of plumes, presence of wings), behavior (like type of nest, nutritional habits and so on). The phenotype is the result of the so called genotype (the set of inherited genetic information) and of the organism history and experience.


Is phenotype a Ee?

Phenotype is like the physical appearance of the character itself. Some examples would be: color of eyes, color of hair, how tall/short you are and more. It's sort of like an adjective, you know. It describes you.


Is The appearance of an organism its phenotype or genotype?

The appearance of an organism is its phenotype. Genotype refers to the genetic makeup of an organism, while phenotype refers to its observable characteristics resulting from the interaction of genotype with the environment.
