You could eat it. The calories in it are a measure of the energy it stores for nutrition. You could, perhaps, dry it and then burn it for heat. Bit of a waste of a good potato if you ask me. You could stick a length of copper and a length of zinc into it and use it to provide electrical energy. It's not as good as lemons, but it still works. It occurs to me that if you throw the potato, it will have kinetic energy but the energy has been put into the potato by your arm, so that probably doesn't count.

How is vegetative propagation's plant reproduction different from when a flower makes seeds?

Vegetative propagation is an example of asexual reproduction. Consider a potato. It buds and the growth falls off to grow into another potato in the ground. It doesn't need pollen to fertilize it, because only one potato was needed to grow another potato. When a flower makes seeds, in needs something to carry pollen into its ovule to grow into a seed. An apple is a seed, and it doesn't grow until the tree's flowers are pollinated. Hope this helps!
