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.
No, genotype actually determines phenotype.
Yes, this is false. It's genotype that determines phenotype. e.g. If you have the dominant gene for brown eyes and the recessive gene for blue eyes (genotype) you will have brown eyes (phenotype)
Yes you can accurately determine an organisms genotype by observing it's phenotype, however some phenotypic traits resulting from homozygous or heterozygous combinations of alleles, may make the prediction impossible.
genotype or phenotype
it is impossible because the phenotype and genotype are different this is out of chapter 10 in the biology book on page 336
The genotype of an organism refers to its genetic makeup, while its phenotype relates to its observable traits. For example, a plant with the genotype for tall height may exhibit a phenotype of actually being tall in stature.
It isn't possible to find a phenotype. This is because the phenotype is the expression of the genotype. The genotype contains the genetic information for the phenotype, but does not show any physical information. The phenotype expresses the genotype in a physical and physiological way, so that what you actually see, is the phenotype. Take blood type for example: Genotypically it is just the genetic code of AGCTCTAGTCC (lets say), but Phenotypically it is Type A In short, the phenotype is what you see and the genotype is coding for it.
genotype always...phenotype sometimes
The length of a forearm would be more of a phenotype, as it is a physical characteristic that can be observed and measured. Genotype refers to the genetic makeup of an individual, which may influence the phenotype but doesn't directly determine the length of a specific body part.
You look at the offspring. Offspring of a heterogenous match are going to have different phenotype percentages than those of a homogenous match.
Phenotype does not determine genotype. Actually a genotype includes an organisms entire hereditary information. A phenotype is simply the organisms actual observed properties including appearance, development and behavior.
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.
