Solution

The observable traits of an organism are its phenotype.

Explanation: 

The observable traits or characteristics of an organism, such as height, color, or shape, are collectively known as its phenotype. These traits result from the interaction of the organism's genetic makeup (genotype) with the environment. Hence, phenotype refers to the visible or measurable features of an organism, whereas genotype refers to its genetic constitution.
