Chapter 11, Problem 5RQ
Summary Introduction
To difference:
Between the terms phenotype and genotype, to discuss whether the phenotype of an organism allows determining the genotype, and to determine the experiment helpful in determining the genotype of a
Introduction:
The genotype is the expression of the genetic material of an individual. The physiological, biochemical, and morphological composition and behavior are determined by the phenotype of an individual.
