which of the following is not a method of asexual reproduction in plants. 1) vegetative propagation, 2) sport formation, 3) budding, 4) fragmentation
Answers
Fragmentation is not a method of asexual reproduction in plants.
Explanation:
Vegetative propagation is an asexual method of plant reproduction that occurs in its leaves, roots and stem. This can occur through fragmentation and regeneration of specific vegetative parts of plants.
Spore formation is the sole means of asexual reproduction. Plants follow an alternation of generation life cycle, where diploid sporophyte produces haploid spores and ultimately gives rise to haploid gametophyte.
Budding is an asexual reproduction method in which a new organism develops from a bud of an existing organism. Until the new organism matures, it remains attached to the parent organism. Hydra and yeast, for example, reproduce by budding.
Fragmentation most generally means the process of fragmenting—breaking into pieces or being divided into parts. It can also refer to the state or result of being broken up or having been divided.
Options 1, 2, and 3 are the methods of asexual reproduction in plants. Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
