The part of the carrot that makes the sugars for the carrot plant is the leaves.
The carrot (Daucus carota subsp. sativus) is a root vegetable, usually orange or white, or red-white blend in color, with a crisp texture when fresh. The edible part of a carrot is a taproot. It is a domesticated form of the wild carrot Daucus carota, native to Europe and southwestern Asia. It has been bred for its greatly enlarged and more palatable, less woody-textured edible taproot, but is still the same species.It is a biennial plant which grows a rosette of leaves in the spring and summer, while building up the stout taproot, which stores large amounts of sugars for the plant to flower in the second year. The flowering stem grows to about 1 m tall, with an umbel of white flowers.
the carrot is located under the earth attached to the leaves sprouting from the earth.
There are many plants with tap roots, including the carrot, beet and SUNFLOWER.

The carrot root initially performs the function of any plant root...that is, to feed the plant soil nutrients and water during the growing season. The carrot plant, however, is biennial. The carrot root, then, in its second year will become a source of nutrition for the second year growth during which time the plant will flower and produce seed. The wild carrot, in its seeding year, is called Queen Anne's Lace. Its blossoms dry and curl upward to resemble a bird's nest.
