Solution

The correct option is D All the above
Vegetative propagation us a form of asexual reproduction of a plant. Only one plant is involved and the offspring is the result of one parent. The new plant is genetically identical to the plant and it grows from parts of the parent plant.

Bryophyllum produces plantlets along the margins of its leaves. When they mature, they drop off and root in any suitable soil beneath.

Stem cuttings is the process of cutting of stem and cut part is used to propagate sugarcane and rose. Each set contains one or more buds. A cutting is a vegetative plant part which is severed from the parent plant in order to regenerate itself, thereby forming a whole new plant.

Thus, the correct answer is the option D.
