mainly harmful, it depends on which potato they ... well, sit on. In some context they are good, if you are the type of person who likes hospitals and operations the your answer is good, but if you are the type of person who likes to keep out of harms way then the answer is harmful. Its not some much poison, don't get me wrong but I think they have poison in, its more the sharpness, in the worst case scenario it could end up slicing your oesophagus, which could end to premature death ( unless you have it removed immediately ). My final opinionated answer is HARMFUL.

Potatoes reproduce through tubers because it's a reliable and efficient method for ensuring genetic similarity among offspring.

By using tubers (containing eyes) for reproduction, the offspring will be genetically identical to the parent plant, ensuring desired characteristics are maintained.

How does potato plant reproduce with the help of eyes on the potato tuber?

No, you have to plant the potato. I grew one for a science project once. You have to bury the potato in some soil and leave only an inch of it sticking up. Keep it watered and in a sunny spot. You can plant the eyes of a potato, but only with big chunks of potato still attached. Cut a potato into chunks that contain two or more budding eyes, and let the cut part of the potato harden for a day or so, to help prevent rot. Then plant them about one foot apart with the eyes up (so they can see!). They should be planted about four inches below the ground's surface, but just barely covered over until they begin growing.
