The admission committee will see your entire record. It is up to them to decide how to consider and weigh the various parts of it - different people will feel differently about this, and there is no way to know what the sense of the committee as a whole will be.

If you had special circumstances that affected your grades, you should address them in your statement of purpose or cover letter.
