Yucca, the edible portion, is a root, a tuber. It is similar to potatoes in how it is used, flavor, texture, and nutritional value. It is also a vegetable.

Yes, deer can eat yucca plants, although they may not be their preferred food source. Yucca plants contain saponins, which can deter some herbivores due to their bitter taste. However, in times of food scarcity, deer may consume yucca if other options are limited. The extent of yucca consumption can vary based on local deer populations and availability of alternative forage.
The Yucca plant and yucca moth have a mutualistic relationship where the moth pollinates the plant and lays its eggs in the plant's ovaries. This relationship benefits both species as the plant receives pollination while the moth's larvae feed on some of the plant's seeds. However, this relationship can also have disadvantages, such as potential damage to the plant's seeds and the possibility of the moth overpopulating and harming the plant population.
Yucca is one type of food in Paraguay.
The Yucca plant is known to many by various names such as Aloe Yucca, Adam's Needle and even Bear Grass. The Yucca plant is commonly used to make medicine but can also be eaten as food as well.
Yucca filamentosa, the most common type, Yucca brevifolia (Joshua tree), Yucca aloifolia (Spanish bayonet), and Yucca gloriosa (Spanish dagger). Yucca baccata and Yucca glauca, are called soap plant.
Yucca is the English word for yucca.
An example of mutualism is the relationship between the yucca plant and the yucca moth. The yucca moth pollinates the yucca plant while laying its eggs inside the plant's flowers. In return, the yucca plant provides a place for the moth to lay its eggs and ensures the propagation of its species through pollination.
It's a mutualistic relationship. The yucca plant (Mexico, Caribbean and Southern US) can't pollinate itself to grow more seeds. The yucca moth pollinates the plant and lays its eggs inside the plant. When the moth larvae hatch, they feed on the seeds of the yucca plant, but the plant only lets a certain number grow, so that they don't eat all the seeds. So by pollinating the plant, the moth develops food for its larvae and the plant as well as the moth can survive and continue. And the adult moths emerge from their underground cocoons exactly when the yucca plants are in flower, in early summer.
Woven yucca leaf baskets were quite common.
No. Kangaroos do not eat yucca. Yucca is not native to Australia.
"Yucca" is the genus part of the scientific name (Genus, species).
