Answer 1

The correct option is C Phenotype

In Mendel's experiments, the colour of seed coat, nature of the flower, position of flower, the colour of pod, height of stem are called phenotype. The phenotype of an organism depends on which genes are dominant and on the interaction between genes and environment. The phenotype is an expression of the genotype. Phenotype is the outward appearance of an organism; the expression of a genotype in the form of traits that can be seen and measured such as hair or eye colour.

So, the correct answer is option C.
