Answer 2

Answer:

Option (2) Oxalis

Explanation:

• Bulbil is a small, bulbous or roundish, multicellular structure meant for vegetative propagation. It is an aerial modification.

• It develops at the leaf axil due to modification of vegetative bud or floral bud with stored food. It detaches from the mother plant and grows up into a new independent plant.

• Bulbil is seen to occur in Oxalis during its life cycle as the vegetative propagules.
• These bulbils not only serve as a means for vegetative reproduction but also serve as a means of dispersal for many plants.
• Walck et al. concluded that germination in Bulbil is similar to seeds of many temperate plants, adaptively occurring in spring at the beginning of a favorable time for survival and growth.

Hence option (2) Oxalis is correct.
