Potatoes are tuberous stems.
Storage tissue in roots and stems refers to specialized plant cells that store essential nutrients, water, and energy reserves, primarily in the form of starch, sugars, or oils. In roots, such as carrots or sweet potatoes, this tissue helps the plant survive periods of drought or nutrient scarcity. In stems, such as in tubers like potatoes, storage tissue allows for energy accumulation and supports vegetative reproduction. This adaptation is crucial for the plant's growth and survival, especially in challenging environmental conditions.
Seed plants have both roots and stems. Roots anchor the plant in the ground and absorb water and nutrients, while stems support the plant and transport water and nutrients between roots and leaves.

Pith and cortex are the storage tissues in roots and stems
On your back by a disease. It can hurt kids and Adults.
You can cut down the stems on a potatoes but this may slow their overall growth. The stems are a vital part of the plant which provide nutrients and grow considerably as it does.
No, we just discussed this in our bio class its actually a tuberous root, not to be confused with the term tuber. Potatoes on the other hand are stems, but there is a difference.
Sweet potato, like white (etc.) potatoes are tubers, in other words, edible roots. They grow underground. (in the ground.)
Pineapple is a fruit (composite) as you eat the ripened ovary of the plant. Vegetables are considered "greens" where the leaves, stems or roots are consumed
