capacity to store genetic information‚ copy it and pass it from generation to generation‚ and the specific three dimensional arrangements of atoms that gave DNA its unique proprieties. 2. How does an organism’s genotype determine its phenotype? * * The phenotype is an organism in a class to which that organism belongs as determined by the description of the physical and behavioral characteristics of the organism for example the size and shape‚ its metabolic activities‚ and its

has two alleles in the flies’ genotype‚ or genetic makeup. In the parent generation (P)‚ the flies used are homozygous‚ meaning they have two of the same alleles (“Mendelian Genetics”). The females are winged‚ and since that is a dominant allele‚ it is represented by a capital letter F. That means the female genotype is FF‚ because they get one allele from each parent. The males are wingless‚ which is a recessive allele represented by a lowercase f. Their genotype is ff. A Punnett square can be

direction. 2. How does an organism’s genotype determine its phenotype? The genotype is the genetic makeup of a cell‚ an organism‚ or an individual usually with reference to a specific character under consideration. A phenotype is the composite of an organism’s observable characteristics or traits: such as its morphology‚ development‚ biochemical or physiological properties‚ phrenology‚ behavior‚ and products of behavior. Phenotypes result from the expression of an organism’s genes
