A potato is a structure that stores nutrients and food for a plant.
The scientific name for this structure is called a Tuber (not Tuba)
There are two types of tuber, stem and root.
Stem Tubers are potatoes, this is because they shoot out a stem when the plant grows.
Root Tubas start off as roots and then enlarge to become storage organs, still acting as a main root.
