ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A method known as the vegetative propagation, using leaves, stems, roots and bulbs as plant source.
A
Asexual
B
Natural
C
Artificial
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Asexual plant propagation methods produce new plants from vegetative parts of the original plant, such as the leaves, stems and roots. These methods are generally referred to as vegetative propagation. Many plants can reproduce this way naturally, but vegetative propagation can also be artificially induced.

Detailed explanation-2: -Asexual propagation involves taking a part of one parent plant and causing it to regenerate itself into a new plant. The resulting new plant is genetically identical its parent. Asexual propagation involves the vegetative parts of a plant: stems, roots, or leaves.

Detailed explanation-3: -Vegetative propagation is an asexual method of plant reproduction that occurs in its leaves, roots and stem. This can occur through fragmentation and regeneration of specific vegetative parts of plants.

Detailed explanation-4: -Vegetative Propagation by Roots In this process, new plants grow out of the modified roots called tubers. In fact, in some plant species, roots develop adventitious buds. These buds grow and form new plants/sprouts under the right conditions. For example, Sweet potato and Dahlia.

Detailed explanation-5: -Asexual propagation produces a genetically identical plant to the parent plant. Various asexual propagation methods exist such as growth from tubers, bulbs, rhizomes, and stolons, taking stem cuttings, leaf cuttings, cane cuttings, grafting, division, layering, and tissue culture.
