The answer is A. The genotype is the genetic makeup of the organism, it affects traits. The phenotype displays those traits, maybe not all of them, due to dominant and recessive genes. The environment also influences the genotype and phenotype by evolution and adaptations. It alters the genotype, which affects what the organism will display (phenotype).
