please answer me fast ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Advantages of vegetative propagation

Quicker and more certain.

Produces identical quality as the parent.

Plants that do not have viable seeds, can be reproduced.

Flowers produced are of superior quality.

The Desirable character of fruit can be maintained.

Disadvantages of vegetative reproduction

Does not produce a new variety.

Leads to overcrowding around the parent plant.

Very little possibility of dispersal.

A disadvantage is that sexual reproduction takes longer than asexual reproduction. A mate must be found, the egg must be fertilized by sperm, and then the offspring develop. The benefit of introducing genetic variation into the species , however, outweighs this disadvantage.
