Answer: rice that resists drought

Explanation:

The genetic engineering is a process of developing healthy plants and crops. This enable the production of disease free, drought tolerant, and high yielding crops. Also, the crops can be grown in different seasons.

The genome of the plant is manipulated with that of the other plant or animal to develop desired characteristics in plants.

The rice that resists drought is the correct option. This is because the rice is the basic staple crop. It is consumed by people all over the world. It is consumed on the daily basis. The rice crops grow in the standing water, in the absence of appreciable amount of water rice may not grow. Thus, attaining resistance to drought in rice plants, will have a greatest positive impact on the health of the people of the developing nations. As more production of rice will enable people to obtain daily food.

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

round and in chains

Explanation:

<em>Streptococcus agalactiae </em>is a gram positive bacteria. It is facultative anaerobe and forms a part of microbiota in gastro intestinal and urinary tract of healthy humans. It can cause infections in immuno compromised beings.Its genus name describes its morphology. Coccus are round spherical shaped bacteria. Strepto means that the bacteria are present in chain form. Hence this bacteria is spherical and arranged in chains.  

There are several other types of bacterial morphology. For example: Staphylococcus means that the bacteria is again spherical but this time arranged in groups. Diplococcus means that the spherical bacteria is arranged in a pair. Similarly, bacillus is used to describe a rod shaped bacteria.
