bulbo/muda


Explanation:
O bulbo é um tipo de caule que serve para se replantar, sendo caracterizado por uma "grande gema terminal suculenta colocada sobre um eixo encurtado basal" (Dicionário Aurélio). Ele é comumente chamado no Brasil também como "muda", pelo fato de que promove a mudança da planta, de um local para o outro.
