Solution

The correct option is C

Rhizome


Rhizome, also called creeping root stalk, is a horizontal underground plant stem capable of producing the shoot and root systems of a new plant. Rhizomes store starch and proteins and enable a plant to perennate (survive an annual unfavourable season) underground. Ginger grows and reproduces from rhizomes.
