Genetic Engineering by Humans
…We made it into a chihuahua
A Good Definition of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology
Atom by atom
assembly of a complex and/or
functional system
molecule by molecule
We are the most wonderful examples of Nanotechnology !

Another major problem: 40% of the world exist on rice
Traditional edible rice contains no carotenoids
This results in Vit A deficiency which can result in
1.Permanent blindness
2.Respiratory infections
3.Diarrhoea
4.Measles
5.Growth problems
Two genes from the daffodil which code for the enzymes which produce beta carotenoid can be inserted into rice DNA which then grows containing beta carotene
