An organisms genotype is?
An organism's genotype refers to the specific set of genes it carries in its DNA. It is the genetic blueprint that determines the organism's characteristics and traits. A genotype is unique to each individual and can influence how traits are expressed.
What describes organisms or genotypes that are homozygous for a specific trait that always produce offspring of the same phenotype?
Organisms or genotypes that are homozygous for a specific trait and always produce offspring of the same phenotype are said to be true breeding. This means that when bred with another organism of the same genotype for that trait, all offspring will display the same characteristic.
What is an example of a haploid genotype in organisms?
An example of a haploid genotype in organisms is the gametes, such as sperm and egg cells, which contain only one set of chromosomes.
What genotype is not true-breeding?
A heterozygous genotype (e.g. Aa) is not true-breeding because it carries two different alleles for a trait and can produce offspring with different genotypes when crossed. True-breeding genotypes are homozygous for a particular trait (e.g. AA or aa) and will consistently produce offspring with the same genotype when crossed.
Is it true an organism's physical appearance is its genotype?
False. An organisms physical appearance is its phenotype.
What is an organisms combination of inherited alleles?
genotype

What is an organisms way its genotype is expressed?
Phenotype

Can you accurately determine an organisms genotype by observing it's phenotype?
No, genotype actually determines phenotype.
Inhereted combination of alleles?
That would be the organisms genotype.
What word is used to describe an organisms appearance?
genotype
An organisms physical appearance or visible traits is its what?
Genotype
What is an organisms genetic makeup or allele combination?
Genotype
What is the organisms combination of alleles called?
The genes an organism contains is called the organism's genotype.
Can 2 organisms have different genotypes but the same phenotype?
No. It is possible for the reverse to be true, two organisms can have the same phenotype but a different genotype. This is because the phenotype is what you will see on the outside whereas the genotype is the combination of alleles and since this determines the phenotype, two organisms with the same genotype will have the same phenotype. So, basically, no. Actually 2 organisms can certainly have different phenotypes with the same genotype--this refers to the concept of penetrance. Some people can have the gene for a condition but never show symptoms. An excellent example of this is the disease neurofibromatosis. This disease has very variable penetrance in which a child of an affected parent may show no signs of the disease, but then have a child with a severe form.
