Solution

The correct option is A Carrot
Stems support the plant body. In some plants, they adapt and start storing food. Some plants like potato, turmeric, garlic, ginger and sugarcane store food material in the stem due to which the stem bulges in size. Generally, we think that these are all tubers or roots but they are modified stems.
