Detailed explanation-1: -Strawberry plants can be propagated asexually by allowing plantlets on the ends of stolons ("runners") to grow in soil. But the actual strawberries are the result of sexual reproduction, as they grow from flowers.
Detailed explanation-2: -Runners and daughter plants Strawberry plants reproduce through stolons or “runners.” Runners extend out several inches from the crown, take root in the soil, and produce new plants called “daughter plants.”
Detailed explanation-3: -Asexual Reproduction. Asexual reproduction only requires DNA from one parent. It creates offspring that are genetically identical to the parent. Genetically identical offspring are called clones. Clones lack genetic diversity.
Detailed explanation-4: -Answer and Explanation: The offspring of the strawberry plant are genetically identical from the parent that reproduce through the process of vegetative reproduction. They have the same characteristics as the parent plant. It is a type of asexual reproduction in plants that occurs without seeds or spores.
