∙ 9y agoDominant alleles are expressed, even if a recessive allele is also present. In the notation used, a capital letter means a dominant allele - therefore the presence of a P (in either PP or Pp) means the organism will display the trait P creates.

∙ 9y agoG is dominant gene and g is a recessive gene. The same genotype is shown in GG and Gg. Only gg will show the g phenotype.

∙ 8y agoThis is because they all have at least one dominant allele, P.
One way is if an allele for the gene in question is dominant. Homozygotes for the dominant allele and heterozygotes will both have the same phenotype.Organisms have the same phenotype, or physical characteristics. They do not, however, have the same genotype, or genetic makeup. If T represent tall, and t represnts short then the organism will have the genotypes TT and Tt. If you make a Punnett square you will have the same phenotype but different genotypes. Unless some weird mutation occurs....
The question should be "If two alleles for a gene are the same, what phenotype will the organism have?" Answer: If the two alleles are for the dominant phenotype, the organism will exhibit the dominant phenotype. If the two alleles are for the recessive phenotype, the organism will have the recessive phenotype.
No they do not. Say for example we are looking at the the colour of pea plants where R represents the allele for the colour red and, and the other allele r represents green. The plant will be red with the genotype RR AND Rr which are different genotypes.

Phenotype variation is slight variations in a phenotype that are caused by the expression of an organism's genes or the influence of environmental factors. A species can have several different phenotypes within it.
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.
No, phenotype refers to the physical traits or characteristics that are observable in an organism, while genotype refers to the genetic makeup of an organism, including both the genes that are expressed and those that are not. So, while genotype influences phenotype, they are not the same thing.
Yes, it is possible for two horses to have the same phenotype but different genotypes. Phenotype is the observable characteristics of an organism, while genotype refers to the genetic makeup. Differences in genotype can lead to variations in the genetic composition that may not be visibly apparent in the phenotype.

yes
A genotype is the actual genetic coding for an organism A phenotype is the physical appearance For example, let's say BB or Bb is the coding for black hair. BB/Bb is the genotype, and the black hair is the phenotype
Genotype and phenotype are both related to an organism's genetic makeup. Genotype refers to the specific genetic information carried by an individual, while phenotype refers to the physical characteristics and traits expressed by an individual as a result of its genotype. Both genotype and phenotype play a role in determining an organism's traits and behaviors.
The genotype of the offspring that had the same phenotype as the parents is rr or wrinkled. The phenotype for the seed shape of both parent plants is round.
When genetics refer to the physical characteristics of an organism, they are talking about its phenotype. This includes traits such as eye color, height, and hair texture that can be observed. These characteristics are the result of interactions between an organism's genetics and its environment.
The genotype of an organism is the group of characteristics derived from a combination of heredity and environmental factors. Genotype is based on genetic factors only. phenotypes are the genes that an organism carries. For example, the gene for blue eyes could be b and the gene for brown eyes could be B. Bb is a genotype. Phenotype is the trait that show up. Since brown eyes are dominant, the phenotype of Bb would be brown eyes.
Actually, it's the genotype that determines the phenotype. The genotype is the genetic makeup of an organism, which determines its physical traits or characteristics, known as the phenotype. Changes in the genotype can lead to changes in the phenotype, but the phenotype does not determine the genotype.
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.
