Solution

The correct option is D asexual reproduction in plants
Vegetative propagation is a mode of asexual reproduction where a new organism arises from a vegetative or non-reproductive part of the parent body. This is seen mainly in plants and fungi.

Animals predominantly exhibit sexual reproduction. Only very few such as planaria and hydra exhibit asexual reproduction. Asexual reproduction in animals is not called vegetative reproduction.
