Which correctly compares genotypes and phenotypes? (1 point)

Question

• Genotypes determine the phenotypes an organism expresses.
• Phenotypes determine the genotypes an organism expresses.
• Genotypes and phenotypes are identical in organisms.
• Phenotypes and genotypes are unrelated to traits in organisms.

Answer 1

The correct comparison is:

• Genotypes determine the phenotypes an organism expresses.

Genotypes refer to the genetic makeup of an organism, while phenotypes refer to the observable traits and characteristics that result from that genetic makeup, often influenced by environmental factors.
