In stem cuttings, a portion of the stem is cut and placed in water or soil, where it develops roots and grows into a new plant. Leaf cuttings involve taking a leaf and encouraging it to produce roots and shoots, while division entails separating a plant into multiple parts, each with roots and leaves, allowing them to grow independently. These methods enable the propagation of genetically identical plants without the need for seeds.
