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.

Which of these is necessary for natural selection to occur genetic engeneering genetic variation asexual reproduction or enviormental stability?

Genetic variation is necessary for natural selection to occur. This variation provides the raw material for differential survival and reproduction, which drives the process of natural selection. Without genetic variation, there would be no differences for natural selection to act upon.
