Is widows peak a dominant or recessive trait?
Phenotype is what you physically see.
Are proteins made from the genetic code physically expressed as a trait?
Yes, you are correct.
How would it be possible for the offspring to show a trait that neither of the parents shows physically?
because that persons grandma or grandpa or one of their past realatives could have had that trait
Is it true that if a person has a recessive trait the genotype must be homozygous recessive for the trait?
See excellent related answers below.
What are an individuals expressed traits called?
genotype
Is widows peak a dominant or recessive trait?
Phenotype is what you physically see.
Which can you physically see genotypes or phenotypes?
You can see the phenotype. A good way to remember is that a photograph is what you see. The genotype is the graphic representation of the trait.
Are proteins made from the genetic code physically expressed as a trait?
Yes, you are correct.
What is the outward appearance of the trait called?
In genetics, the phenotype represents the physical characteristic/trait. For example brown eyes is a phenotype. When referring to alleles which are alternative forms of a gene, it is the dominant allele that is represented physically. For example if brown eyes are a dominant trait, then they would be represented physically in the genotypes BB and Bb.

What is difference between a dominant trait and a recessive trait?
A recessive trait is a trait that is not shown or expressed physically but is retained within the persons genes, whereas a dominant trait is a trait which opresses the recessive trait and is prodominantly shown or expressed physically. For example it is possible for two red-haired parents, both with recessive dark haired genes, to have a dark haired child. they must both have the recessive gene or the dominant gene of red - hair will be expressed in the child
When do you see a dominate trait?
When the allele that codes for the dominant trait is expressed in the genome.
Does golding see no hope and see evil as an inborn trait?
no
Can you look ahead if you cannot see?
Physically, if you can see, you can physically look forward. However, if you physically can see, it does not necessarily mean you have a mind, therefore mentally you may not be able to look ahead. On the other hand, if you are blind physically, there is no way to see ahead in a physical sense. This does not mean you can not mentally see or look forward.
What term describes the physical traits of a person?
A gene or a phenotype is the term that refers to the trait an organism physically expresses.
What is the outward appearance of a trait called?
phenotypeThe physical appearance of a trait is called a phenotype, not to be confused with a genotype( which is your genetic makeup) The way I remember is phenotype and physical both start with a p, and genotype and genetic both start with a g.
What is the physical or functional expression of a genetic trait?
It is what the trait does that you can see. Such as hair color and eye color
