Solution

The correct options are
A Beetroots
C Carrot
D Radish

Some plants like radish, carrot, beetroot store food materials in their roots. The bulged out roots of these plants are known as tuberous roots. Storing food in the roots help them to use it during scarcity of food and survive. For example, there is a lesser chance of photosynthesis, due to less avalability of sunlight, during winter. In situations like this, plants like carrots and radish live on stored food to survive throught the winter.
