Phenotype is what it looks like (its observable characteristics, its orangeness), compared to the genotype, which is the actual genetic makeup. The phenotype of the orange would be its taste, juice content, sweetness, size, seed number, color, etc.

How does phenotype affect phenotype?

In codominance, in which an organism is heterozygous for a trait, both phenotypes are expressed equally because both alleles are dominant. An example is a tortoise shell cat. Tortoise shell cats have both black and orange fur because they have both a dominant black allele and a dominant orange allele for coat color. The black fur is expressed by the allele for black fur and the orange fur is expressed by the allele for orange fur.

What Dominant alleles are both fully expressed in a phenotype?

The form of inheritance in which two (different) alleles are both expressed is called codominance. An example of codominance is the orange and black coat of a type of calico cat called a tortoiseshell. Both the orange allele and the black allele for coat color are expressed.


How do dominant and recessive alleles affect pheno type?

An allele can effect the phenotype of an organism by its dominance or recessiveness. If two dominant alleles are crossed the offsprings will carry the dominant trait of the alleles. If a dominant allele is crossed with recessive allele the phenotype of the offsprings will be of that of the dominant allele. And if two recessive alleles are crossed the phenotype of their offsprings will carry the reccesive trait.


Use the word phenotype in a sentence?

(In genetics, the phenotype is when genes combine to determine dominant traits.) "Researchers studied the phenotype of the mutated rats."
