Solution

The correct option is B Layering, Bulbils
Layering is a type of horticultural or artificial method of vegetative propagation in which adventitious roots are induced to develop on a soft stem while it is still attached to the plant. Bulbils are multicellular fleshy buds that take part in natural vegetative propagation, e.g., Oxalis, Agave, pineapple.
So, the correct answer is 'Layering, Bulbils'.
