The correct answer is: have edible parts which are analogous organs.
Analogous organs are those organs, which are different in origin but similar in function. Patato and sweet potato are absolutely different in their origin as potato is modified underground stem (tuber), while sweet potato is tuberous root. It means both have edible parts, which are different organs.
