DENDROLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Not every plant grows from a seed. Some plants, like ferns and mosses, grow from spores. Other plants use asexual vegetative reproduction and grow new plants from rhizomes or tubers. We can also use techniques like grafting or take cuttings to make new plants.

Detailed explanation-2: -Seed Grown Plants Are Genetically Diverse Just like human siblings are not genetically identical, seeds do not grow into genetically identical plants. For example, seeds from New England Aster can develop into individual plants with pinkish or purplish flowers. Some might naturally grow taller than others.

Detailed explanation-3: -Seeds of hybrid fruit don’t usually grow the same fruit. Hybrid fruit are typically self-sterile, meaning they can’t be pollinated by their own strain and must be pollinated by a different strain. Therefore, the fruit had two different parents so the seeds will be genetically diverse.
