Solution

The correct option is D Assimilation
Underground stems are modified plant structures that are derived from stem and are present under the soil surface. Examples of underground stems include corms, bulbs, rhizomes, tubers. They perform various functions such as storage tissues for food and nutrients, in reproduction by propagation of new offspring, in perennation by allowing survival from one growing season to the next.
Thus, the correct answer is 'Assimilation.'
