Genotype is the specific combination of genes that contribute to a trait that an organism has. (For example, the genes for being tall).
Phenotype is the expression of the trait which is partially influenced due to the genotype and partly by the environment (Even if you have the genes for being tall, if you are malnourished you will not grow as tall).

phenotype describes with words what the genetics LOOKS like, example: Heterozugous, homozygous, and the trait, in words......

How are Genotype phenotype alike?
Genotype is the specific combination of genes that contribute to a trait that an organism has. (For example, the genes for being tall).Phenotype is the expression of the trait which is partially influenced due to the genotype and partly by the environment (Even if you have the genes for being tall, if you are malnourished you will not grow as tall).
Is ears genotype or phenotype?
phenotype.
is Ss a genotype or a phenotype?
Phenotype
What is a physical expression of a genotype?
a physical expression of a genotype is called PHENOTYPE
2 What is the biological relationship between genotype and phenotype?
The genotype is what is responsible for the observed phenotype.
What are an individual's observable traits called?
genotype or phenotype
Do mutations affect phenotype or genotype?
genotype always...phenotype sometimes

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.
Is ears genotype or phenotype?
phenotype.
is Ss a genotype or a phenotype?
Phenotype
What is a physical expression of a genotype?
a physical expression of a genotype is called PHENOTYPE
How is phenotype different from genotype?
The genotype is the genetic makeup on the other hand phenotype is the outcome or expression of that particular genotype.
How phenotype and genotype relate?
Genotype and phenotype are to words that are not related. Genotype refers to classification by comparing genetics. Phenotype refers to classification according to the appearance of an organism.
2 What is the biological relationship between genotype and phenotype?
The genotype is what is responsible for the observed phenotype.
When can the phenotype tell you genotype of a trait?
The phenotype can tell the genotype when the characteristic is recessive and is displayed in the individual.
Can you accurately determine an organisms genotype by observing it's phenotype?
No, genotype actually determines phenotype.
