Answer:

Option B, an organism’s combination of genes for a trait

Explanation:

Genotype is the combination of genes that represents a specific trait. For example if there are two genes "Y" and "y" for color of flower (color is a trait ) of pea plant with "Y" representing Yellow color and "y" representing green color, then the possible genotype pair would be -
