Due to fluorescence, it absorbs UV and emits Orange light.. It is due to a phenyl group.. EtBr fluoresces even when not bound to DNA but its fluorescence increases 20 times when in bound state as hydrophobic environment between base pairs force dissociation of water bound to ethidium cation. Note: Water quenches fluorescence highly.

The white color is a recessive trait, so the mother must have the genotype Oo (where O represents the allele for orange color and o represents the allele for white color).


What color if you mix grey and orange?

The color would literally be called a "grayed orange." Gray made of white and black doesn't actually change the color itself, it just fades the color out. The color will be duller. If you use a tinted gray the tint will affect the color. A gray with blue tint is described as blue, but has blue undertones. Mixing this with orange would result in a brownish gray version of the original orange. It would still be predominately described as orange.
