What is the process by which genotype becomes expressed as phenotype?

Genotype is the underlying genetic makeup of an organism, while phenotype is the observable characteristics resulting from the interaction of genotype with the environment. The process by which genotype becomes expressed as phenotype is called gene expression, which involves the activation of specific genes to produce proteins and other molecules that determine physical traits. This process is complex and can be influenced by environmental factors and other regulatory mechanisms.


What are an individual's observable traits called?

genotype or phenotype


What are an individuals expressed traits called?

genotype


The actual gene makeup of an organism is its what?

The actual gene makeup of an organism is its genotype. It refers to the specific set of genes an organism carries in its DNA. This includes both the genes that are expressed (phenotype) and those that are not.


Is the genotype the outward expression of a gene?

NO NO NO!!!!!a genotype refers to the actual makeup of the gene, as in the type of alleleuppercase refer to dominant genes, lowercase refer to recessive genesan expressed gene regardless of whether it is dominant or recessive is expressed in the PHENOTYPE which is the physical traits observable caused by the genotypePhenotype is what your question should be changed to and then your answer will be yes


What physical appearance of a trait is called the while genetic composition is?

A very simple way to understand the two is this: phenotype is what you see and genotype is what genes are there. Phenotypes are expressed genes and genotypes include recessive genes that are not seen.


What an organism looks like as a result of a gene is called?

a phenotype is the physical characteristics of an organism based on its genotype.


What is a physical expression of a genotype?

A physical expression of a genotype is called a phenotype. It refers to the observable characteristics or traits of an organism resulting from the interaction of its genetic makeup (genotype) with the environment. Examples of phenotypic traits include eye color, height, and behavior.


What we call the observable expression of genes present in an organism?

The observable expression of genes present in an organism is referred to as the phenotype. This includes both physical traits, such as eye color or height, as well as behavioral characteristics. Phenotypes result from the interaction between an organism's genetic makeup and its environment.


The physical expression of the genotype is called?

the organism's phenotype is the physical expression of the genotype


What is the phenotype of AAA?

It's impossible to say without more information. The genotype AA is called homozygous dominant for the trait that is encoded by the letter A (or a). Whatever trait A stands for on your homework, the answer is the dominant one is expressed in the phenotype.


Using the terms dominant recessive explain the difference between genotype and phenotype?

No, I think you have your terms confused.The terms "dominant" and "recessive" are applied to alleles of a genotype. A genotype is an expression (using upper- and lower-case letters) that shows what alleles an organism has for a particular locus. The two alleles (in most cases) inherited (one from mother and one from father) can either be dominant or recessive. The recessive allele is not fully expressed in the presence of the dominant allele and is only expressed when there are two recessive alleles. The genotype could be called "recessive" I suppose if the genotype is homozygous recessive. But remember that two recessive alleles as a genotype is only one possibility - in which case you can't say the "genotype is recessive".The phenotype is dependent on the genotype. If present, the dominant alleles (in simple Mendelian genetics) will determine the phenotype - what the organism's trait or characteristic is. The phenotype will never be what is coded by the recessive allele unless the genotype is two recessive alleles.
