<u>"Golden Rice"</u> contains daffodil genes that increase vitamin A content.

Golden Rice is a type of rice (Oryza sativa) that has undergone genetic engineering in order for the edible parts of the rice to biosynthesize beta-carotene, a precursor to vitamin A.  The goal is to create fortified food that can be grown and eaten in regions that lack dietary vitamin A. A lack of vitamin A results in xerophthalmia, which includes permanent blindness as well as a variety of eye conditions ranging from night blindness to more serious clinical outcomes like keratomalacia and corneal scars. Additionally, it raises children's mortality risks from both diarrhea and measles.

How does wet and dry barometer work?? Thnx
tatiyna

Wet barometer - The tool works by measuring atmospheric pressure to predict incoming weather. Since the glass is only filled halfway with water, the other half is exposed to the atmosphere. When the outdoor atmospheric pressure rises, the pressure in the glass decreases, and causes the water to move down the spout.

Dry barometer - A Torricellian barometer (sometimes called a mercury barometer) is an inverted (upside-down) glass tube standing in a bath of mercury. Air pressure pushes down on the surface of the mercury, making some rise up the tube. The greater the air pressure, the higher the mercury rises.

I hope this helps!
