Can two organisms have different genotypes but the same phenotype?
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....
How can an organism with a genotype Gg could have the same phenotype as an organism with the genotype GG?
Dominant 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.
If two genes in a gene pair are for the same trait what will that trait be?
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.
What is phenotypic variation?
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.
What is the phenotype of a homozygous dominant person?
Homozygous dominant- means having dominant alleles at the same locus on a chromosome.More correctly, it's the same locus on two chromosomes (a homologous pair).
Can you have the same genotype but different phenotype?
yes
What was the genotype of the offspring that did not share the parent's phenotype?
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.
Does a Tt plant have the same genotype as a TT plant?
Nope! TT is the dominant phenotype (what ever it may be) and tt is the recessive phenotype (what ever that may be).So say T is the allele for Tall plants, t is the allele for short plants. TT would be show the tall phenotype while tt would show the short phenotype. If the genotype was Tt, the phenotype would be tall as well because the T is dominant and masks the phenotype of t (short plants).
Can two horses have the same phenotype but different genotypes?
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.
How do you determine a phenotype when the genotype is different but the phenotype is the same?
You look at the offspring. Offspring of a heterogenous match are going to have different phenotype percentages than those of a homogenous match.
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.
How can you have the same phenotype but different genotype?
Different genotypes don't always change your phenotypes because of mutations

Are phenotype and genotype traits the same?
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.
Why are genotype fractions different from phenotype fractions of the same cross?
Genotype fractions differ from phenotype fractions in a genetic cross because multiple genotypes can produce the same phenotype due to the presence of dominant and recessive alleles. For example, in a simple Mendelian trait, both homozygous dominant (AA) and heterozygous (Aa) individuals exhibit the same phenotype, while only the homozygous recessive (aa) shows a different phenotype. This means that while the genotype ratio reflects the actual genetic combinations, the phenotype ratio represents the observable traits, leading to discrepancies between the two.
How its possible two individuals to have to the same phenotype but different genotype for a trait?
it is possible beccause you dont always need both
