What root vegetable, famous for its bright orange color and high beta-carotene content, is commonly grown in gardens?
Correct Incorrect Carrots usually get their bright orange color from beta-carotene, which the body converts into vitamin A, crucial for healthy eyesight. These root vegetables grow underground and are loved for their crunchy texture and natural sweetness. Interestingly, before the 17th century, carrots were mostly purple or white until Dutch farmers developed the orange variety we’re familiar with today.
