Recessive
A recessive gene or gene combination can be present in a generation without affecting the phenotype if it is masked by a dominant gene. This means that the trait associated with the recessive gene will only be expressed if an individual inherits two copies of the recessive gene.
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.
When genes are expressed, the result is called phenotype. What is actually in all the genes (some are recessive) is called the genotype.
Wild type
The genotype AA represents a homozygous dominant genotype. The capital letter "A" represents the dominant allele, while the lowercase letter "a" would represent the recessive allele. If both dominant alleles are present in a genotype (homozygous dominant) then the phenotype is "A" phenotype. If one dominant allele and one recessive allele are present (heterozygous dominant) then the phenotype is "A". Finally, if both recessive alleles "a" are present (homozygous recessive) then the phenotype is "a". Therefore, the answer to your question is the genotype AA would result in an "A" phenotype because the genotype is homozygous dominant.
I'm not sure...
The phenotypes present in the F1 generation depend on the phenotypes of the parental generation (and the environment). The F1 generation will display the dominant trait(s). For example, if T is tall and t is short, in the cross TT X tt the F1 generation will have the phenotype corresponding to the T allele (tall).
No. Genotype is the combination of genes present in an organism. It consists of alleles whose visible characteristics is called phenotype. An organism's phenotype is visible and not the genotype as you just can't see a person and tell what kind of genes are present in the organism.
All of the F1 generation are heterozygous, therefore 100% exhibit the dominant phenotype. The F2 generation has a ratio of 1 homozygous dominant: 2 heterozygous: 1 homozygous recessive. This results in a phenotypic ratio of 3 dominant: 1 recessive.

you mean phenotype, and its dominant alleles

Fourth Generation
A phenotype in a Punnett square refers to the physical characteristics or traits displayed by an organism, resulting from its genetic makeup. It represents the observable expression of the genes present in an individual, determined by the combination of alleles inherited from its parents. Phenotypes can include traits like eye color, hair texture, or height.
