What is a healthy persons genotype and phenotpe?

A healthy person's genotype refers to the specific genetic makeup they possess, determined by their alleles. Their phenotype, on the other hand, refers to the observable characteristics and traits resulting from the interaction of their genotype with the environment. In the case of a healthy individual, their genotype and phenotype would reflect a lack of harmful mutations or genetic disorders, leading to normal physical and physiological traits.


How is phenotype different from genotype?

Genotype refers to the genetic makeup of an individual, while phenotype refers to an individual's observable traits or characteristics resulting from the interaction of their genotype with the environment. Genotype provides the genetic instructions, while phenotype represents the physical manifestation of those instructions.


What phenotype is produced by AA genotype?

The AA genotype typically produces the phenotype associated with the dominant allele A. This means that the dominant trait will be expressed in the individual with this genotype.


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.


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.

Do mutations affect phenotype or genotype?

genotype always...phenotype sometimes


How can you have the same phenotype but different genotype?

Different genotypes don't always change your phenotypes because of mutations


What are an individual's observable traits called?

genotype or phenotype


Does phenotype determine genotype?

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.


How phenotype and genotype relate?

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.


Is The appearance of an organism its phenotype or genotype?

The appearance of an organism is its phenotype. Genotype refers to the genetic makeup of an organism, while phenotype refers to its observable characteristics resulting from the interaction of genotype with the environment.


Is ears genotype or phenotype?

Ears are a phenotype, as they are physical characteristics that can be observed. Genotype refers to the genetic makeup of an organism.


Can you accurately determine an organisms genotype by observing it's phenotype?

No, genotype actually determines phenotype.


How is genotype and phenotype compared?

Genotype is the allele combination and phenotype is the physical appearance of the result of the genotype. Genotype for tallness may be: Tt Phenotype example: Brown hair, blue eyes, widow's peak, etc.


How can a genotype change a phenotype?

no not always due to some phenotypes having more than one gene sequence that affects it, eg; the base sequence for a certain enzyme's synthesis could be TTT but by substituting a T with a C to make TTC in mutation could still be a code for the same enzyme...


What is the difference between genotype and genotype?

Phenotype is the physical Characteristic that you can see. The genotype is the genetic information (the genes) that code for the proteins that cause the phenotype. Relatively simple examples include eye, skin and hair color.
