This was a great ides for farmers! here's why..
Even though rice is a type of grass It can grow in wet floody conditions and dry dirt conditions. But When they grow in dry ground  So do all the of the weeds. And the weeds takes away quality from the rice. 
On top of that there is not a single herbicide out there that can kill the weeds and not kill the rice:/
On top of that flooding kills a lot of the bugs that are trying to get a meal. If they cant swim then there might be a problem for the bugs:D
anyways hope this is helpful and pick me as BRAINLIEST:)

Answer:

Rice has a submerged growth state while most weeds do not. Therefore, flooding rice fields reduces the growth of these less robust pests without negatively affecting the rice crop. Flooding the fields also deters many kinds of vermin that would otherwise live in the soil and harm the rice plants because they cannot breathe underwater.

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Oxytocin

Explanation:

The release of oxytocin is signaled by the fetal brain about 38 weeks after conception. Oxytocin is also called birth hormone as it stimulates uterine contraction.

The uterine contractions stimulate the release of more oxytocin through a positive feedback loop. Oxytocin stimulates contraction of the smooth muscles in the wall of the uterus which in turn finally leads to childbirth.

Which of the following occurs most often in a population when genetic variation and overproduction are present?
aalyn [17]

Overproduction is a natural phenomenon in which the number of produced offspring is higher than the number of individuals the ecosystem can sustain. Thus, competition for limited resources occurs.

Because of the genetic variation, the organisms within a population have different chances to reproduce. Most often, some organisms have a lower reproductive success than others do.

The number of individuals with a high reproductive success is rather low as few males are very successful at passing on their genetic material.

The number of organisms with no reproductive success is also very low, as these "ill adapted" individuals will disappear from the population extremely quickly.

Genetic variation is the amount of differences between individuals. Thus, no organism taken by itself has any genetic variation.
