The mode of reproduction in the plants chosen by student 'A' is asexual reproduction, and student 'B' is sexual reproduction. (Option C)

Explanation:-

• The rose is grown from the cuttings of a plant. Here, there is no involvement of any male and female gametes. Hence, the method used by Student 'A' is asexual reproduction.
• The wheat plant was grown by the method of seeding. Seeds are formed by the sexual reproduction of male and female gametes found in flowers. Hence, the method used by Student 'B' is sexual reproduction.
