Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

" genotype is the pair of genes an organism has for a particular trait. Phenotype is the observable trait present in the organism. For example, if you were to see the pea plants in a garden, the TT and Tt will both appear tall. And, if you saw the tt plant, it would appear short."

Answer:

Genotype is what you can’t see physically and phenotype is the physical characteristics of that organism.

Explanation:Genotype is known as the genetic makeup of an organism. Think the genes behind what your seeing.

Phenotype is the physical characteristics of an organism. For example:freckles,eye color, open or closed earlops..... things of that nature.
