If you’re talking about the tomato, strawberry and potato plants in their entirety, as opposed to just the parts you eat, then the tomato is more similar to the potato. Both tomato and potato are in the nightshade family, and even in the same genus (Solanum). They have similarly leaves, flowers and fruits.

The tomato and the strawberry are both fruits carrying seeds resulting from sexual reproduction. They are different from both parents, not clones even in true breeding cultivars.

While the potato is a part of the stem adapted for underground starch storage as a stem tuber. Because it is a modified, underground, horizontal rhizomatous stem tuber it has leaf nodes or ‘eyes’ that can sprout new stems for future asexual growth that produces only a clone of the parent plant.
