Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Temperament refers to an individual's stable and characteristic mood, activity level and attention span. It is an innate characteristic that is present in infancy and persists throughout life. Personality, on the other hand, refers to a combination of temperament and other factors, such as experiences and environment. Genotype and phenotype refer to an individual's genetic makeup and observable characteristics, respectively, but do not specifically relate to an infant's mood, activity level, and attention span.
