A pea plant is tall. It has one dominant and one recessive trait. What is the phenotype and genotype?

Phenotype is the physical features of an organism such as tall, fat, black etc.

Genotype is the genetic composition of an organism.

In genetics the dominant gene is represented by uppercase alphabet and recessive gene is represented by Lower case alphabet.

Dominant trait = T

Recessive trait = t

The genotype is therefore Tt

While the phenotype is physical feature which is Tall (T).

Answer: The genotype of the pea plant is Tt. T is the dorminant allele and t is recessive.

Tall is the phenotype.

Explanation:

Genotype is a genes of an individual which show the phenotype or the traits.

From the above question, the pea plant have genes of T tall and t for dwarf, because T is dorminant, it is expressed over recessive.

The genotype of the pea plant is Tt.

Phenotype is the observable or visible characteristics the organism posses which is as a result of the genotype been expressed.

The phenotype is Tall.
