Q. Which plant stores food in the stem?
Solution:
Potato and ginger have modified stems (underground stems).
Potato’s underground as well as modified stem is called tuber.
Ginger’s underground as well as modified stem is called rhizome.
These plants photosynthesize normally like other plants through their leaves.
The food produced i.e.,starch is then stored in these underground stems.
The underground stems swell due to storage of food produced by the plants.
