Solution
The correct option is C A, B, C and D
Clones are genetically identical individuals. Some plants produce clones naturally by asexual reproduction. Plants can be cloned artificially using tissue culture. Different techniques in plant tissue culture may offer certain advantages over traditional methods of propagation, including the production of exact copies of plants that produce particularly good flowers, fruits, or have other desirable traits; to quickly produce mature plants; the production of multiples of plants in the absence of seeds or necessary pollinators to produce seeds; the regeneration of whole plants from plant cells that have been genetically modified; the production of plants in sterile containers that allows them to be moved with greatly reduced chances of transmitting diseases, pests, and pathogens; the production of plants from seeds that otherwise have very low chances of germinating and growing, to clean particular plants of viral and other infections and to quickly multiply these plants for horticulture and agriculture.Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
