Question

Consider the following statements.
a. Bamboos produce new plants vegetatively through their rhizomes.
b. Strawberries can reproduce asexually by runners.
Which of the statements given is/are correct?

• A. $1$ only
• B. $2$ only
• C. Both $1$ and $2$
• D. Neither $1$ nor $2$

Answer 1

The correct option is C Both $1$ and $2$

Bamboo rhizome propagation or offset propagation is a traditional vegetative propagation method and perhaps the most commonly used propagation technique for bamboo.

Strawberries can reproduce sexually by producing gametes in flowers and asexually by producing new plants at the end of runners.

So the correct answer is option C.
