Aside from enabling reproduction in plants that have lost the ability to produce seeds, what other advantages are associated with vegetative propagation?
Vegetative propagation plays a significant role in the evolutionary processes of plants.
The absence of variations in the DNA of offspring resulting from vegetative propagation inhibits evolutionary changes.
Plants propagated vegetatively exhibit accelerated fruit production compared to those grown from seeds.
Genetic uniformity is achieved in plants propagated through vegetative means, ensuring similar traits to the parent plant.
Answers (1)
Option 3 states that plants raised through vegetative propagation can bear fruits earlier than those grown from seeds. This advantage arises from the fact that vegetative propagation allows the new plants to inherit the exact genetic traits of the parent plant. As a result, they skip the juvenile growth phase and directly enter the reproductive phase, leading to earlier fruit production. This is particularly beneficial in agricultural practices where early fruiting can increase productivity and shorten the time required for crop production.Hence, the correct answer is option 3.
