==Key Stage 4==
===Meaning===
The [[phenotype]] is the physical expression of the [[genotype]].

===About the Phenotype===
: A different [[genotype]] in two [[organism]]s can result in the same [[phenotype]]. For example two people may both have a [[phenotype]] of brown eyes but one has a [[genotype]] containing two copies of the [[allele]] for brown eyes while the other may have one copy of the [[allele]] for blue eyes.
: The [[phenotype]] is determined by the [[Dominant Allele|dominant allele]]s in the [[genotype]].
