question 27 of 30
which of the following best describes a phenotype?
a. the alleles that a person has
b. the number of genes a person has
c. the traits that a person has
d. the genes a persons parents have

Explanation:

A phenotype refers to the observable characteristics or traits of an organism, such as eye color, height, or hair texture. Option A refers to genotype (the genetic makeup). Option B is about the quantity of genes (not relevant to phenotype). Option D is about parental genes (not the individual's phenotype). Only option C correctly describes phenotype as the traits a person has.

Answer:

C. The traits that a person has
