true,i love these kind of questions :)
why are underground stems usually swollen? why are underground stems usually swollen?
There are many, many plants that can asexually reproduce such as Pothos, most Succulents, some shrubs such as Rosemary, trees such as Cypress, the list goes on and on.
sporophyte
In plants, what is the diploid form called?
The vegetative part of ginger refers to the underground rhizome, which is the thickened stem that produces roots and shoots. This rhizome is commonly used for propagating ginger plants and for consumption in cooking and medicinal purposes.
A rhizome is an underground stem that can produce new leaves and roots. It grows horizontally underground and can send out shoots and roots at various points. Examples of plants with rhizomes include ginger, bamboo, and iris.
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.

Flowering plants do not have a sporophyte. They have antheridium and archegonium to produce their gametes. Sporophyte is found in ferns, mosses, club mosses, lycophytes, etc but not in flowering plants. Flowering plants produces pollen while a sporophyte produces spores
Potatoes, garlic and onion are stems that grow underground which we know best. Yam and ginger are also examples of stems that grow underground. Rhizome, tuber, bulb and corm are other examples of underground stems that are not known by many people.
asexual sporophyte ulva plants is called so, as it produces spores and sexual gametophyte ulva plant is so called as it produces gametes
