Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Background Information: Strawberry plants can reproduce by propagation. The parent plant (mother) produc-es runners (horizontal stems) that bud into a new daughter plant. The flowers develop into the fruit, the part we eat.
Detailed explanation-2: -Ferns, mosses, liverworts and green algae are all plants that have spores. Spore plants have a different life cycle. A parent plant sends out tiny spores containing special sets of chromosomes.
Detailed explanation-3: -Strawberries, like many flowering plants, can produce both sexually and asexually. Farmers rely on both traits: sexual reproduction produces fruit, whereas asexual reproduction provides breeders with clones of useful strawberry varieties.
