No, you have noticed their phenotype.

No, you cannot determine someone's genotype just by looking at their eye color. Eye color is controlled by multiple genes and can vary even within the same family. Genotype refers to the specific genetic makeup of an individual, which is not always evident from their physical traits.

What is the genotype of a homozygous long winged fly that is heteozygous for gray body color?
LLGg
If an orange tiger gives birth to one white tiger and three orange tigers which allele does the mother have for color?
The mother tiger must carry both the allele for orange color and the allele for white color since she produced both orange and white offspring. The white color is a recessive trait, so the mother must have the genotype Oo (where O represents the allele for orange color and o represents the allele for white color).
Suppose that the alleles for blue eyes in cats is recessive and your cat has blue eyes. what statement can you make about your cat's genotype for eye color?
If your cat has blue eyes, it must have two copies of the recessive allele for blue eyes (bb) because blue eyes is a recessive trait. Therefore, your cat's genotype for eye color would be bb.
If someones's hair is described as flaxen what colours is it?
Flaxen means a pale, yellowish color, therefore, flaxen means all shades of blond, golden, etc.
Spiders have transparent blood?
Spiders have blue blood. In human blood oxygen is bound to hemoglobin which contains iron, giving it the blood a red color. In spiders, as well as other Arthropods and Molluscs, oxygen is bound to hemocyanin which contains copper, giving its blood a blue color. The same interaction that causes oxygenated blood to color, also causes iron rust to appear reddish and the oxidized copper to appear green. However, I have noticed no color in spider blood before.
When you notice that someone has unusally blue eyes you've noticed their what?
phenotype for eye color
What did Jonas notice about Fiona hair?
Jonas noticed that Fiona's hair had changed from its original chestnut color to a new, red shade.
What is eye color an example of?
genotype
If one parent has the genotype Cc for hair color and the other parent has the genotype cc what percentage of the offspring will have the recessive genotype for hair color?
50% of the offspring will have the recessive genotype (cc) for hair color when one parent is Cc and the other parent is cc. This is because all their children will inherit one "c" allele from the parent with cc genotype.
Is brown hair color a genotype?
Brown hair color is a phenotypic trait, not a genotype. The genetic information that determines hair color is the genotype, which can include a combination of alleles for different hair color variations. The presence of specific alleles will determine the individual's hair color phenotype, such as brown hair.

What did Jonas notice about the apple in the giver?
Jonas noticed that the apple's color was different compared to the previous day. It had changed from a dull, matte red to a vibrant, glossy red. This change in the apple's color was one of the first indications to Jonas that he was starting to see things differently after receiving memories from the Giver.
What decides what color eyes you have?
What decides your eye color is your genotype that you get from your parents. if you have blue eyes, you have to have two recessive traits. Yet, any other color has to have a dominant allele to create the color. But, scientists already can tell that if you have blue eyes, your genotype is, 'bb.' Or, two recessive alleles.
Determine the phenotypes for the genotype yellow body color is dominant to blue?
The phenotypes for the genotype "yellow body color is dominant to blue" would be yellow body color for individuals with at least one dominant allele for yellow (Y allele) and blue body color for individuals with two recessive alleles for blue (yy genotype).
What is the genotype for a brown eyed homozygote?
The genotype for a brown-eyed homozygote would be BB, where each allele represents the gene for brown eye color.
Compare and contrast genotype and phenotype?
Genotype refers to an individual's genetic makeup, including all the genes they have inherited. Phenotype, on the other hand, is the observable characteristics or traits exhibited by an individual, resulting from the interaction of their genotype with the environment. While genotype determines the genetic potential of an organism, the phenotype reflects how that potential is expressed in terms of physical traits.
