Solution

The correct option is B Vitamin A
Golden rice is a variety of rice produced through genetic engineering, to biosynthesize beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin A, in the edible parts of rice. Beta-carotene is converted into Vitamin A when metabolized by the human body. We need Vitamin A for healthier skin, immune systems, and vision.
