Answer:  

Carrots, radishes, and turnips are all roots and considered to be root vegetables.  

Explanation:  

  • Carrots, turnips, radishes are all roots and they are a type of tap roots where food and nutrients are stored within them and they, as a result, become fleshy thick and swollen.
  • These roots not only mere hold the plant to the ground and help in obtaining water and nutrients from the soil, but also act as the storehouse of the food and nutrients and water thereby expanding in size and appearing the way they appear.
  • Turnips become completely round and grow bulbous whereas carrots and radishes become elongated and conical.
