Some of the most common diseases are infections caused by bacteria, such as Campylobacter, Salmonella, Shigella, E. coli O157:H7, Listeria, botulism, and norovirus.
A genotype is the actual genetic coding for an organism. A phenotype is the physical appearance. For example, let's say BB or Bb is the coding for black hair. BB/Bb is the genotype, and the black hair is the phenotype.
PHENOTYPE AND GENOTYPE. Definitions: phenotype is the constellation of observable traits; genotype is the genetic endowment of the individual. Phenotype = genotype + development (in a given environment). To consider these in the context of evolutionary biology, we want to know how these two are related.HENOTYPE AND GENOTYPE.
