Question

State the three advantages of vegetative reproduction.

Answer 1

Here are three advantages of vegetative reproduction:

1. It is a rapid, easier, and less expensive method of multiplying plants.
2. Plants produced are exact genetic copies (clones) of the parent, maintaining identical characteristics.
3. It helps propagate plants that have poor seed viability, prolonged seed dormancy, or have lost capacity to produce seeds sexually (e.g., banana, seedless grapes).
