Mendel experimented with garden peas. one of the traits he looked at was texture of the pea coat. if we said the pea coat was smooth what are we looking at?
a. genotype
b. phenotype
c. chromosomes

the correct answer is B) Phenotype.

Phenotype corresponds to a characteristic/ trait or morphological form of a living organism.

For instance, in this case, texture of pea coat is a particular characteristic of the pea. This can be smooth or wrinkled. Smooth pea coat therefore indicates a phenotype of the garden pea.

On the other hand, genotype refers to the genetic makeup of the organism. Chromosomes are the thread like structures that are composed of DNA ( deoxyribonucleic acid, which is the genetic material of living organisms).
