Cabbage is a biennial plant that is grown as if it was an annual (as are carrots).
Yes, carrots are biennial plants. They typically produce edible roots in their first year of growth, and if left in the ground, they can produce flowers and seeds in the second year before completing their life cycle.
The word "biennial" can function as both an adjective and a noun.
The underground food reserve in biennial plants is important because it stores energy in the form of carbohydrates, enabling the plant to survive the winter. This reserve allows the plant to resume growth in the second year and produce flowers and seeds for reproduction. Without this food reserve, the plant would not be able to survive through the dormant period and complete its life cycle.
An annual plant is the type of plant that lives a year or less. The plant's entire lifespan occurs during the space of one year only, from inception to death.
The edible part of cabbage is the condensed flower, also known as the inflorescence. It is the cluster of flowers that forms the head of the cabbage plant and is harvested and consumed in various culinary dishes.
