Pith and cortex in general and specialized storage parts such as root, rhizome, bulb, tuber and succulent leaves and stems.
The roots of a plant anchor it to the ground. They absorb water and nutrients from the soil, provide stability, and store reserve food for the plant.
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.
Ginger is the name of the entire plant. The bulbous parts you see in shops are actually called 'Rhizomes', however most places call them 'ginger root' to avoid confusion(the actual roots grow out of the Rhizomes, and they are rarely used in food). The leaves can be used to flavour food, and the flowers are also edible.
Leucoplast -no it is not. it is the cytoplasm. -no it is neither plastid to be correct.
I have no idea what a colyledon might be. A cotyledon is a modified leaf containing the food for a seed. It provides the food for the new plant. Some cotyledons finish their task of providing the new plant with food and turn into leaves. Other cotyledons do not turn into leaves. Some cotyledons go underground and store food for the plant.
The rhizome is a creeping underground stem of some plants. A rhizome is thick and swollen and acts as a food store. Iris is an example of a rhizomatous plant.

In plant cells, the food reserve is primarily stored in the form of starch granules in organelles called amyloplasts. Amyloplasts are specialized organelles that synthesize and store starch, which serves as a long-term energy reserve for the plant.
Avoid plant food on the rhizome when you plant. Nitrogen can hurt the rhizome. The American iris society has an excellent web page to show you how to plant your irises. Make sure you have a sunny spot that is well drained.
sugar The plant store food in the form of non-soluble sugar (starch), proteins and fats.

In rhizomes - i.e the 'root ginger' part of the ginger plant, and the 'potato' part of the potato plant. Howeve the potato is a tuber, not a rhizome.
Dahlia store food in their tubers.

In certain plants the underground stem becomes rhizome by storing food and developing protective mechanism to overcome adverse environmental conditions. It helps in regeneration of the plant when there are favourable conditions of growth.
