    2. environmental changes and sexual dimorphism
    3. genotype and environment interactions
    4. mutations and linkages

Phenotype is the appearance of one organism while genotype is the gene complement it has from its ancestors. These genes only show their effect in phenotype but environment also plays an important role in this. Hence phenotype is a result of genotype and environmental interaction.
