What is the difference between tubers and tuber roots science class7
Answers
Answer:
A root is a compact, often enlarged storage organ with hairy stems that develops from root tissue. A tuber is also a root. More specifically, it's an enlarged storage organ, but it develops from elongated stem tissue, or rhizome. So a tuber is a root crop, but a plant can be a root and not a tuber.

Bulb is a term given to plants that have fleshy underground storage structures, but only some of the plants commonly called bulbs are actually true bulbs. Tubers are also bulbs by this definition, but they are not true bulbs. A true bulb and a tuber are different in appearance and in how they grow.
