Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which method of plant reproduction is commonly used in agriculture to produce clones of a desired plant?
Correct Answer: Asexual reproduction
  • Step 1: Understand that plants can reproduce in two main ways: sexually (with seeds) and asexually (without seeds).
  • Step 2: Asexual reproduction means creating new plants that are genetically identical to the parent plant.
  • Step 3: In agriculture, farmers often want to produce many plants that have the same good traits, like being tasty or disease-resistant.
  • Step 4: Two common methods of asexual reproduction are cuttings (taking a part of a plant and growing it) and grafting (joining parts of two plants together).
  • Step 5: By using these methods, farmers can quickly and easily create clones of a desired plant.
