Answer:
1:the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize nutrients from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a by-product.
2: Nodes. A node is an area on a stem where buds are located (figure 6). It is a site of great cellular activity and growth. It is here that small buds develop into leaves, stems or flowers. When pruning, it is important to locate a plant's nodes.
3:Radish- An underground stem called a tuber. Potato – An underground stem called a tuber. Carrot – A modified tap root.
4:In botany, a tendril is a specialized stem, leaf or petiole with a threadlike shape used by climbing plants for support and attachment, as well as cellular invasion by parasitic plants such as Cuscuta

7:root
8:Pistil is the innermost part of a flower. Style is centrally located on the pistil, while the stigma is present on the top. At the base of the pistil, a swollen structure is present which is called the ovary.
9:Starch is the food that gets stored in plant leaves. Starch is a polymeric carbohydrate consisting of numerous glucose units linked by glycosidic bonds. It acts as stored energy in plants.
9: leafs of the plant
