Which statement about genotype and phenotype is FALSE? Phenotype is determined solely by genotype. Genotype consists of hereditary information, whereas phenotype is the physical and biochemical expression of genotype, influenced by the environment. The same genotype may produce different phenotypes. The same phenotype may result from different genotypes.

Mitochondrial Mutations

A mitochondrion is a cellular organelle that serves as the site for cellular respiration and energy production (ATP or Adenosine Triphosphate). It is a double-membrane-bound organelle and is only present in eukaryotic cells.
