A phenotype is the composite of an organism's visible attributes or features, such as its morphology, development, biochemical or physiological characteristics, behaviour, and products of behaviour (such as a bird's nest). A phenotype effects from the expression of an organism's genetic code, its genotype, as well as the impact of environmental factors and the communications between the two.
