Answer:

The correct answer would be C) stem.

Modified stems are used as storage organs in potato plant. They are also termed as stem tubers.

They are formed from thickened stolons or rhizomes.

They help in perennation and provide nutrients and energy for regrowth during the following growing season.

The underground tuber survives the winter until spring and help in regeneration of new shoots.

The new shoot uses the food stored in the tuber to grow.

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

mutase

Explanation:

A mutase is an enzyme  that catalyzes the movement of a functional group from one position to another within the same molecule, in this case glucose.

The reaction of interconversion of glucose-1-phosphate and glucose-6-phosphate occurs in glycolysis.

Glycolysis is the process  in which glucose is broken down to pyruvate in order to produce energy. It occurs in cytosol and it can be divided into two phases: phase that requires energy (two ATP molecules are used)  and phase that produces energy (four ATP molecules together with two NADH are produced).
