None of the above
Explanation:

Vegetative reproduction is considered asexual reproduction because, in this biological process, the vegetative part of the parent plants (root, stem, leaf etc.) are preserved and propagated to produce a new individual.

Detailed explanation-2: -In asexual reproduction, the new offspring are generated from a single parent. Vegetative propagation is an asexual reproduction as new individual develops from vegetative parts of the parent.
