What are phenotype and genotype and what terms that describe them?
A very easy way to remember these two terms is: phenotype is what you see and genotype is what is in the genes. You may have B blood type (what to see) but you could have BB or BO (what is in your genes.
How would you describe the alleles in a heterozygous genotype?
A heterozygous genotype includes two different alleles.
What terms mean genetic composition?
It's genotype. I have a crossword with that on it, and it fits. Plus the definition is kind of the genetic makeup of an organism.
Using the terms dominant recessive explain the difference between genotype and phenotype?
No, I think you have your terms confused.The terms "dominant" and "recessive" are applied to alleles of a genotype. A genotype is an expression (using upper- and lower-case letters) that shows what alleles an organism has for a particular locus. The two alleles (in most cases) inherited (one from mother and one from father) can either be dominant or recessive. The recessive allele is not fully expressed in the presence of the dominant allele and is only expressed when there are two recessive alleles. The genotype could be called "recessive" I suppose if the genotype is homozygous recessive. But remember that two recessive alleles as a genotype is only one possibility - in which case you can't say the "genotype is recessive".The phenotype is dependent on the genotype. If present, the dominant alleles (in simple Mendelian genetics) will determine the phenotype - what the organism's trait or characteristic is. The phenotype will never be what is coded by the recessive allele unless the genotype is two recessive alleles.
Which bests describes the factors that describe a phenotype?
(Apex Learning) The genotype and the environment both affect phenotype.

Which one does not belong Phenotype - genotype - allele?
Phenotype. Allele and genotype both describe genes wheras phenotype describes outward appearance.
Do genotype or phenotype describe characteristics that can be observed?
The phenotype is the physical manifestation that is observable.
