Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Commercial bananas are seedless and propagated exclusively by vegetative means. The banana has a reduced underground stem, called the rhizome, which bears several buds. Each of these buds sprouts and forms its own pseudostem and a new bulbous rhizome. These daughter plants are called suckers.

Detailed explanation-2: -Watermelon and banana are seedless because they have three sets of chromosomes, giving them an odd number to work with when they produce pollen and egg cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -The yellow thing you peel and eat is, in fact, a fruit because it contains the seeds of the plant. Although since bananas have been commercially grown, the plants are sterile, and the seeds have gradually been reduced to little specs.

Detailed explanation-4: -Bananas, reproduce via vegetative propagation( i.e. vegetative parts of a plant such as a root, stem, etc., are capable of producing new plants). In bananas, asexual reproduction occurs by employing vegetative propagation from the stem.
