PART - 2 CH - 7 How do Organisms Reproduce ? — Science STD 10 — Question

In many plants root, stem and leaves develop into new plants under appropriate condition. Such a mode of reproduction is called vegetative propagation.
Advantages of vegetative propagation are as follow:
(1) Vegetative propagation is used in layering or grafting methods to grow many plants like sugarcane, roses or grapes for agricultural purposes.
(2) Plants raised by vegetative propagation can bear flowers and fruits earlier than those produced from seeds.
(3) The plants that have lost the capacity to produce seeds can also be produced by vegetative propagation. e.g., banana, orange, rose, jasmine
(4) All plants produced by vegetative propagation are genetically similar to the parent plant.
