Detailed explanation-1: -Vegetative reproduction is a type of asexual reproduction found in plants. This type of reproduction occurs when new individuals are formed without the production of seeds or spores. The formation of new plants out of rhizomes or stolons is an example of vegetative reproductive, such as in the strawberry plant.

Detailed explanation-2: -Stolons and rhizomes are modified stems for vegetative reproduction. While stolons grow above the ground, rhizomes grow beneath the ground. Stolons and rhizomes maintain the genotypes of hybrids and hence are invaluable for agricultural propagation. Diploid strawberry is a model for studying stolon development.

Detailed explanation-3: -vegetative reproduction, any form of asexual reproduction occurring in plants in which a new plant grows from a fragment of the parent plant or grows from a specialized reproductive structure (such as a stolon, rhizome, tuber, corm, or bulb).

Detailed explanation-4: -Strawberry plants reproduce using stolons. They look like branches growing along the ground. Stolons anchor themselves to the ground and develop roots.

Detailed explanation-5: -Ginger and iris produce rhizomes, while ivy uses an adventitious root (a root arising from a plant part other than the main or primary root), and the strawberry plant has a stolon, which is also called a runner.
