Question

Plants produced by vegetative propagation are genetically similar to the parent plant.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Vegetative propagation:

1. Vegetative propagation can be defined as an asexual mode of plant reproduction where the new plants are grown from the parts of the parent plant, i.e. stem, leaves, and roots without the use of reproductive organs
2. There is just one parent involved, and the offspring is the result of only one parent. Because it is grown from parts of the original plant, the new plant is genetically identical to it.

Final answer:

The given statement is true.
