A stem tuber has axial buds. Such as "eyes" on a potato.
Root tubers grow below ground. Stem tubers grow above ground.

stem
A root. There are turnips and turnip greens the greens is the stem.
Yes. The stem grows from the root. It is the ROOT that grows first, not the stem; therefore the stem cannot possibly grow otherwise! It makes sense that something cannot exist without the other being their first; therefore the STEM could not have grown if the ROOT had not been there 1st
Its a stem.
No. Potatoes are tubers. They come from the root.
Root Tubers are different than Stem Tubers. Root Tubers include: Dahlias, Sweet Potatoes (Kumara - Ipomaea battatas), Cassava and Jerusalem Artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus) Root Tubers are modified roots so do not have "eyes" (buds) like a Potato which is a. . . .Stem Tubers include: Potatoes, New Zealand Yam or Oca (Oxalis tuberosa), Tuberous Begonias, Cyclamen, and Mignonette Vine (Anredera cordifolia) and they are modified stems so do have "eyes" (buds) which are axillary (side) buds and can become vegetative shoots.Stem Tubers also generally go green (like a spud) if left in the light but Root Tubers generally don't (no chloroplasts in modified root.)
Similarities Between Stem Tuber and Root Tuber Stem tuber and root tuber are two types of geophytes. Both are underground swollen structures of plants. They store water and nutrients. They anchor plant bodies to the soil.
rhizomes are underground horizontal stems tubers are enlarged underground stems
Tubers are various types of modified plant structures that are enlarged to store nutrients. They are used by plants to overwinter and regrow the next year and as a means of asexual reproduction. Two different groups of tubers are: stem tubers, and root tubers

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.

Whoever said that a potato is a root just because it is below ground was making that up and doesn't know what they are talking about. A potato is just a thickened stem that is underground. As to why it is a root, does anyone care to elaborate? Please only answer if you actually know.
