Solution

The correct option is A Potato
In potato, underground stem stores starch and becomes fleshy tuber. The eyes of tuber represent nodes and adventitious buds are present in their axil. The buds may germinate to produce new plantlets. Onion and garlic also show stem modifications but in these plants stem is modified to bulb having fleshy leaves. Tomato reproduces sexually and produces berry fruit.
