Good Morning!
Do rhizomes contain starch ?
Thanks!

Dear student,
Please find below the answer:

Rhizomes are root-like stems that usually produces roots below and sends up shoots progressively from the upper surface from its nodes. They do contain starch. In fact, they store both starch and proteins and help in the survival of plant underground.

Hope this clears your doubt.
Regards.
