The relationship between an organism genotype and its
Introduction:
The genotype is the genetic constitution of an individual organism. Phenotype is the observable physical characteristics of an organism. Genes encode a protein product. The phenotype of an individual is influenced by its genetic constitution and its environment

Protein synthesis is the process of building a phenotype from a
genotype. In 100-200 words explain how knowledge of this process
helps us to understand how variation is created and expressed. You will
want to refer to specific steps in the process.
What is the genetic phenomenon by which, two individuals carrying the same allele causing a disease do not express the same
symptoms (phenotype)?

- Sickle cell anemia is a disease caused by a mutation at the genotypic level. A person with two copies of the gene has the disease, but a person with one copy of the gene does not have the disease. The diagram shows how this mutation affects an organism. Use the image to answer the question. The mutation causes the deformity of the red blood cell, the component of blood that carries oxygen throughout the body. The deformed cells can clump together and can clog blood vessels. The parasites responsible for the sickle cell condition are killed in the deformed red blood cells. In which type of environment would carriers of the disease be naturally selected for?
