Explanation:

Bulbs consist of layers of modified leaves and contain a miniature flower or sprout in the centre. If you cut an onion in half from top to bottom you can see that the roots at the bottom of the bulb anchor the plant to the ground and absorb water and nutrients. Other examples of true bulbs include garlic, amaryllis, tulips, daffodils and lilies.
