Answer:

Rice plants possesses several traits which allow sthem to grow in large amount of water because standing water helps them to produce air channel known as aerenchyma that connects roots with shoots and transport oxygen to submerged tissues. Standing water also help many weed to grow and rice plants also takes nutrients from them as well.

Genes are responsible for the traits that allow rice plants to grow in large amount of water but if the gene of rice plant is genetically modified with new gene which is resistant to drought, that can allow the rice to grow in less water.

The genetically modified rice plant then do not require large amount of water and can grow easily.

If all of the offspring have roan coats—white hairs mixed into a base coat of red—what can be said about the red and white allel
madam [21]

Answer:

The alleles for red and white coat color are co-dominant.

Explanation:

Co-dominance is the condition when none of the allele of a gene is dominant. The heterozygous genotype exhibits traits of both alleles.

In the given example, the offspring have roan coat color in which white hairs are mixed into a base coat of red. Since both the alleles are expressed in heterozygous offspring, the alleles for red and white coat colors are co-dominant over each other.

One advantage of using dns assay to detect maltose production is
Alenkinab [10]
The one advantage of using DNS assay to detect maltose production is the formation of a soluble and colored product compound. 
The reaction that occurs between maltose and DNS in the assay is a redox reaction (reduction and oxidation) such that maltose gets oxidized and becomes Maltonic Acid while the DNS gets reduced into reduced DNS. The  intensity of orange/brown /red color of reduced DNS is proportionately related to the amount of Maltose in the solution.
