genetic makeup of
inherited alleles

Explanation:

• Genotype: It refers to the genetic makeup of an organism, which is related to "Genetic makeup of inherited alleles".
• Phenotype: Represents the physical characteristics (traits) of an organism, so it matches "Physical characteristic (trait)".
• Dominant allele: Usually represented by a capital letter (e.g., \(T\)), so it aligns with "Represented by a capital letter (\(T\))".
• Recessive allele: Commonly represented by a lower - case letter (e.g., \(t\)), thus corresponding to "Represented by a lower case letter (\(t\))".

Answer:

• Genotype: Genetic makeup of inherited alleles
• Phenotype: Physical characteristic (trait)
• Dominant allele: Represented by a capital letter (\(T\))
• Recessive allele: Represented by a lower case letter (\(t\))
