Answer 1

Phenotype reffers to the observable physical properties of an organisms which include the organisms appearance , development and behaviour that are determined by gene of particular genotype , whereas the word genotype reffers to gene structure of particular trait.

Ex - Phenotype of tallnes are of genotype combinations -TT or Tt.

Here, TT refers to homozygous tall .

Tt reffers to heterozygous tall .

In this case , the type of tallness exhibited by the individual is known due to the genotype of the traits.

Due to the influence of the environmental factors , organisms with identical genotypes , such as the case of identical twins ultimately express nonidentical phenotypes as each organisms encounters unique environmental influences as it develops.
