Carrots
A carrot is a root vegetable, scientifically known as Daucus carota. It belongs to the Apiaceae family, which also includes parsley, celery, and dill. Carrots are widely cultivated for their edible taproot, which is usually orange in color but can also be found in other hues like purple, red, yellow, and white.
