Solution

The correct option is A Phenotype
The phenotype is the set of observable characteristics of an individual resulting from the interaction of its genotype with the environment. Genotype can be defined as the genetic constitution of an individual organism. For example, TT is the genotype and tallness is the phenotype. A widely held but fixed and simple image of a person or a thing is a stereotype. A very typical example of a person or thing can be defined as an archetype.
