To put this answer as simply as possible, an organism's genotype can change due to either a random mutation in the DNA/chromosomes or the insertion of DNA from one organism into the DNA of another organism.

What are organisms with the genotype tt is also know as?
Organisms with the genotype tt are known as homozygous recessive for a specific trait. This means that they have two copies of the recessive allele for that trait.
What are two ways an organisms joina population and two ways organisms leave a population?
Organisms can join a population through birth (natality) or immigration. Conversely, they can leave a population through death (mortality) or emigration.
What are the two ways to have blood type A bio?
A person can have type A blood with a homogenous genotype (two A alleles). In addition, you can be heterozygous A (one O and one A allele).
What are two ways protists eat?
they eat by photosynthesis or by other organisms......
Genotype made of two different alleles?
Homozygous
What are organisms with the genotype tt is also know as?
Organisms with the genotype tt are known as homozygous recessive for a specific trait. This means that they have two copies of the recessive allele for that trait.
Can two organisms have the same phenotype and a different genotype?
Yes,if one has two dominant alleles and other has a dominant and a recessive allele
Can two organisms have the same genotype?
Yes, two organisms can have the same genotype if they have the same combination of alleles for a particular gene. This is more common in asexual organisms or in cases of inbreeding within a population. Even in sexually reproducing organisms, there can be individuals that are genetically identical if they are monozygotic twins.
Can 2 organisms have different genotypes but the same phenotype?
No. It is possible for the reverse to be true, two organisms can have the same phenotype but a different genotype. This is because the phenotype is what you will see on the outside whereas the genotype is the combination of alleles and since this determines the phenotype, two organisms with the same genotype will have the same phenotype. So, basically, no. Actually 2 organisms can certainly have different phenotypes with the same genotype--this refers to the concept of penetrance. Some people can have the gene for a condition but never show symptoms. An excellent example of this is the disease neurofibromatosis. This disease has very variable penetrance in which a child of an affected parent may show no signs of the disease, but then have a child with a severe form.
What are two ways orginisims use nutrients from food?
What are the two ways organisms use nutrients from food?
What are two ways some organisms can escape from unfavorable environmental conditions?
Two ways that some organisms can escape from unfavorable environmental conditions would be to move or migrate or to hibernate. Some organisms can even adapt.
What are the two ways that energy stored in dead organisms is used?
Energy stored from dead organisms can be used in two ways. They can either be eaten by other organisms or decomposed by bacteria with the nutrients absorbed in the soil to be used by plants.
What are two ways an organisms joina population and two ways organisms leave a population?
Organisms can join a population through birth (natality) or immigration. Conversely, they can leave a population through death (mortality) or emigration.
What are two ways organisms are connected to the nonliving?
because the organisms eat the dead / nonliving environment
What two ways does the suns position in the sky change?

What two ways that energy is Passed between organisms?
