(i) Vegetative propagation. (1 Mark)
(ii) Advantages: -
• Plants raised by vegetative propagation can bear flowers and fruits earlier than those produced from seeds.
• Plants produced by vegetative propagation are genetically similar to the parent plant.
• Plants that have lost the capacity to produce seed can reproduce by Vegetative propagation. (any two advantages) (1+1 Marks)
(iii) Roses, grapes, banana, orange, jasmine etc. (any other two examples) (½ + ½ Mark)
(iv) Regeneration is carried out by specialised cells. The organism which have those cells only can show regeneration. (1 Mark)
