What is a antonym for phenotype?
An antonym for "phenotype" is "genotype." While phenotype refers to the observable characteristics or traits of an organism resulting from the interaction of its genotype with the environment, genotype specifically refers to the genetic makeup of an organism. Genotype determines the potential traits an organism can express, while phenotype is the actual expression of those traits.
What is genotype mean?
yeah
Another word for a heterozygous genotype?
A Heterozygous genotype means an organism that has both the dominant and the recessive gene.
What is definition of an allele?

Which of the following is the best definition of the term phenotype?

Is dwarfism x or y linked?
it depends on which gender has dwarfism so if the women has dwarfism the she could have a baby that has dwarfism
Is dwarfism located on a particular chromosome?
Many inherited disorders in humans are controlled by a single gene. Achondroplasia is a form of dwarfism. About one out of 25,000 people has achondroplasia. The homozygous dominant genotype causes death of the embryo, and therefore only heterozygotes, individuals with a single copy of the defective allele, have this disorder. This also mean that a person with achondroplasia has a 50% chance of passing the condition on to any children. Achondroplasia is a recessive allele.
How do you treat dwarfism?
There is no treatment for dwarfism. It is permanent.
How do you tell if you have dwarfism?

I think it's genotype...
Can drawfs or midgets reproduce?
Yes, individuals with dwarfism can reproduce just like individuals without dwarfism. The likelihood of passing on the condition to their offspring can vary depending on the specific genetic cause of the dwarfism. It is possible for individuals with dwarfism to have children who do not have the condition.
