Answer 1

The phenotype of an organism refers to an **observable trait**. It encompasses the visible characteristics and traits of an organism, which result from the interaction of its genotype (the genetic makeup) with the environment. Examples of phenotypes include traits like height, color, and behavior. In contrast, a combination of alleles refers to the genotype, and a section of DNA refers to the molecular structure that makes up genes.
