Why is vegetative propagation not called reproduction?
AnantRajgp8298
It all comes down to a small difference in meaning of the words.
By definition, propagation is the multiplication of plant materials via seed or any vegetative method (cutting, tissue culture etc.). It therefore encompasses both sexual (seed) and asexual methods of multiplication.
Pure asexual reproduction results in plants with the same genetic make up as the parent plant (often called daughter plants), whereas sexual propagation via seed results in hybrid offspring which has the combined genetic information from both parents.
Reproduction is more commonly associated with animal multiplication, which for the most part is the increasing of a population via sexual means (although there are a few exceptions to this). Reproduction as it is sexual results in offspring which inherit traits from both parents.

What happens in vegetative propagation?
vegitative propagation is when plants reproduce asexually duuuhhh
Do Annuals reproduce sexual or asexual?
vegetative propagation and pollination, both sexual AND asexual reproduction.
Do Dieffenbachia plants reproduce asexually?
Yes plants do have asexual reproduction. Plants go through Vegetative Propagation.
How do humans regenerate?
The ability of living things to repair them selves or grow lost parts is called regeneration. Plants generally have greater powers of generation than animals do. In plants generally happens to: Vegetative Reproduction : This is an asexual reproduction in plants where vegetative parts, namely, the root, stem, or leaf, give rise to new plants. No reproductive organs take part in this method of reproductive and, therefore, no seed are produced. 1.Vegetative propagation by roots. 2.vegetative propagation by stems 3.vegetative propagation by Leaves
Is offset is a vegetative propagation in water hyacinth?
yes
What kind of reproduction I'd vegetative propagation?
Vegetative propagation is categorized as asexual reproduction. The process involves a single plant.
Different methods of plant propagation?
1. Vegetative propagation 2. Sexual reproduction and 3. Asexual reproduction
When plants reproduce from plant parts other than seeds it is known as?
It is called vegetative Reproduction (propagation)
What happens in vegetative propagation?
vegitative propagation is when plants reproduce asexually duuuhhh
What is artificial vegetable propagation?
some plants can be artificially propagated by using their vegetative parts and this is called artificial vegetative propagation
Differential natural from artificial vegetative propagation?
rtificial propagation (def.): Reproduction of biological tissues via human intervention, usually under carefully controlled environmental conditions, but in the absence of the usual (generally sexual) modes of reproduction. Vegetative reproduction can be performed artificially, a common practice among horticulturists, but much vegetative reproduction occurs naturally without human involvement. Furthermore, artificial propagation can be achieved among both animal and plant species, whereas vegetative reproduction only occurs in plants. Artificial propagation is commonly used to increase the populations of endangered species, often via artificial insemination.
Do Annuals reproduce sexual or asexual?
vegetative propagation and pollination, both sexual AND asexual reproduction.
What is Vegetative Propagation by Leaves?
Vegetative Reproduction is a type of asexual reproduction in which new plants are produced from the vegetative parts i.e. roots, stems, leaves and buds of the parent plant. Since, reproduction is through the vegetative parts of the plant, it is called vegetative propagation. In some plants like Bryophyllum (sprout leaf plant) the leaf has many buds on its margins. A new plant arises from these buds when the leaf falls on the moist soil. This is known as vegetative propagation by leaves. The following are the advantages of vegetative propagation: - Plants produced by vegetative propagation take less time to grow. - They mature faster and bear flowers and fruits earlier than plants produced from seeds. - The new plants are an exact copy of their parent plant, as they are produced from a single parent. - We can also get seedless plants through this method. - In the early stages of growth, such plants usually need less attention than plants grown from seeds.
Two examples of asexual reproduction?

Do Dieffenbachia plants reproduce asexually?
Yes plants do have asexual reproduction. Plants go through Vegetative Propagation.
How does natural vegetative propagation differ from artificial vegetative propagation?

What is vegetated propagation?
Vegetative propagation is production of a new plant from a portion of an existing plant.
