Examples of genotype in the following topics:
-
- Consider the following example: in a population's gene pool, a genotype exists for an infant that is unattached from its mother—it will crawl away and does not have any "love" or other significant attachment to its mother.
- Over time, mutations accumulate and another genotype develops that causes infants to become uncomfortable and cry when their mothers leave them.
- This illustrates the basic idea behind evolutionary psychology in human development: the innate behaviors of very young children are pre-programmed in their genotypes and can be understood by studying the environmental forces that surrounded our ancestors.
-
- He referred to these forces as Genotypes and Phenotypes.
- Genotypes are internal forces that relate to how a person retains information and uses it to interact with the world.
-
- When the children's own genotype influences their behavior or cognitive outcomes, the result can be a misleading relationship between environment and outcome.
- Identical twins share the same genotype, meaning their genetic makeup is the same.
-
- Allport hypothesized that internal and external forces influence an individual's behavior and personality, and he referred to these forces as genotypes and phenotypes.
- Genotypes are internal forces that relate to how a person retains information and uses it to interact with the world.
-
- Beyond our basic genotype, however, there is a deep interaction between our genes and our environment: our unique experiences in our environment influence whether and how particular traits are expressed, and at the same time, our genes influence how we interact with our environment (Diamond, 2009; Lobo, 2008).

- Male animals may also emit pheromones that convey information about their species and genotype .
