Answer:
The phenotype of an organism reflects all the traits that are actually expressed.
Explanation:
Phenotype refers to the visible or evidentiable characteristics that depend on the genotype, which is stored in the DNA. Phenotypic expression, mainly determined by genes, also depends on the influence of the environment on the individual.
Although the phenotype expresses characteristics such as skin, eye and hair color, height or shape of the nose, some characteristics are not entirely visible, such as specific functions or synthesized proteins.
The other options are not correct because:
- <em>Represents its genetic composition: this is genotype.
</em>
- <em>Phenotype occurs in all individuals, both dominant and recessive.</em>
- <em>Many phenotypical characteristics are visible.</em>
