Phenotype is what traits are expressed by the organism. So what ever is the dominant Genotype of the organism will determine the Phenotype. For example a dominant R gene will be the Phenotype in RR and Rr. However, if the organism has two recessive rr then the recessive gene will determine the Phenotype.

What determines an organsm phenotype?
An organism's genotype determines its phenotype.
Which genetic factors determine the color of a hummingbird?
Phenotype is the genetic factor that determines the color of a hummingbird. An organism's physical characteristics areincluded in phenotype.
Why do chromosomes determine an individuals phenotype?
Chromosomes are made of DNA and protein. DNA is the genetic material that determines the genotype and phenotype of a person. The phenotype is the genes that are expressed and observable. See the related link for further information.
A hereditary characteristic that carried by an individual but is not expressed in the phenotype is?
recessive
To determine the genotype of an individual that shows the dominant phenotype you would cross that individual with one that is?
To determine the genotype of an individual that shows the dominant phenotype you would cross that individual with one that is homozygous recessive. A monohybrid cross of two individuals that are heterozygous for a trait exhibiting complete dominance would probably result in a phenotype ratio is 3 dominant 1 recessive.
What is a alle?
The dominant allele is the one that determines the phenotype in a heterozygous individual.
What is a dominant alle?
The dominant allele is the one that determines the phenotype in a heterozygous individual.
What determines an organsm phenotype?
An organism's genotype determines its phenotype.
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.
What are an individual's observable traits called?
genotype or phenotype
Which genetic factors determine the color of a hummingbird?
Phenotype is the genetic factor that determines the color of a hummingbird. An organism's physical characteristics areincluded in phenotype.
What determines organisms phenotype?
genes and environment
Determines an organisms phenotype?
genes and environment
What represents the physical characteristics of the individual?
Phenotype
Can you accurately determine an organisms genotype by observing it's phenotype?
No, genotype actually determines phenotype.
What is the outward appearance of an individual due to its genetic make up called?
It is known as their genome.
Appearance of an individual due to it's genetic makeup?
Phenotype.
